Description

Kata Containers is software licensed under Apache 2 that features two primary components: the Kata agent and the Kata Containerd shim v2 runtime. Additionally, it includes a Linux kernel along with versions of QEMU, Cloud Hypervisor, and Firecracker hypervisors. Combining the speed and efficiency of containers with the enhanced security benefits of virtual machines, Kata Containers seamlessly integrates with container management systems, including widely used orchestration platforms like Docker and Kubernetes (k8s). Currently, it is designed to support Linux for both host and guest environments. For hosts, detailed installation guides are available for various popular distributions. Furthermore, the OSBuilder tool offers ready-to-use support for Clear Linux, Fedora, and CentOS 7 rootfs images, while also allowing users to create custom guest images tailored to their needs. This flexibility makes Kata Containers an appealing choice for developers seeking the best of both worlds in container and virtualization technology.

Description

Mirantis Container Runtime (MCR), which was previously known as Docker Engine Enterprise, serves as a secure and robust container runtime designed for enterprise use, allowing development teams to create and manage containers on both Linux and Windows platforms while utilizing the familiar Docker CLI, Dockerfiles, and APIs essential for mission-critical applications. This solution is fully aligned with Docker-centric workflows and toolchains, ensuring a smooth transition from development to production with rigorously tested and validated releases across various operating systems, accompanied by comprehensive CVE patching and bug fixes that maintain workload reliability. Furthermore, MCR emphasizes top-tier security through FIPS 140-2 certified cryptographic modules, implements mandatory access controls such as AppArmor and SELinux, and incorporates image signature verification, alongside support for sandboxed runtimes like Kata and gVisor, all aimed at maintaining trusted and compliant containers. The combination of these features positions MCR as a leading choice for organizations seeking to enhance their container management capabilities while adhering to strict security standards.
