LinuxCon + ContainerCon North America 2016

Though it faced a controversial start, and scrutiny about its complexity from opponents, systemd emerged as a viable, and crucial part of Linux distributions. With the launch of the Open Container Initiative’s (OCI) runc, and the news that the latest version of Docker now supports it, we’re getting closer to a standard container industry specification.

These linux Containers allow for developers to easily deploy and manage application components, but the industry is still trying to figure out the best way to orchestrate and manage what’s running on the inside. This is where systemd show as a great tool for monitoring and Controlling multiple services within Containers.
In this session, Red Hat’s Dan Walsh will discuss the current ways that Docker and OCI Containers do, and do not, work together with systemd.
We will look at better ways to integrate your services into the OS.
