LXC Description
LXC is the userspace interface to the Linux kernel containment features. It allows Linux users to create and manage system and application containers using a simple API and simple tools. LXC containers can be described as something that is somewhere in between a chroot or a fully fledged virtual machine. LXC aims to provide an environment that is as close to a standard Linux installation as possible, but without the need to use a separate kernel. LXC is free software. Most of the code is released under GNU LGPLv2.1+, some Android compatibility bits under a standard 2-clause BSD licence, and some binaries, templates, and binaries are released under GNU GPLv2.
