“Linux containers are implementations of operating system-level virtualization for the Linux operating system. Several implementations exist, all based on the virtualization, isolation, and resource management mechanisms provided by the Linux kernel, notably Linux namespaces and cgroups.[1] These include:” (WP)

- Linux-VServer
- lmctfy, initially developed by Google and released on 13 October 2013; 7 years ago and not actively developed since 2015.
- LXC (Linux Containers), first released on August 6, 2008; 12 years ago[2]
- LXD, an alternative wrapper around LXC developed by Canonical[3]
