My name is Mark Murnane, I am a Computer Engineering major at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, in my Junior year. I have been working for three years now as a system administrator for our Com Sci department, where I provide Redhat desktops and server infrastructure. I've been working for a while now moving our legacy server environment from Solaris zones to Linux containers(under Docker), and am extremely interested in the project to create a yum plugin to manage containers. I am now very familiar with the current container tools and workflows, and know that distribution is something of a weak spot with current solutions. I also have a few questions about the project: The project description on the ideas page mentions that a 'yum upgrade container' command would be unnecessary. We rely heavily on container versioning, and generally prefer the encapsulation provided by replacing containers wholesale. Would a solution that supports updates be undesirable? The description only mentions Docker, but other systems for managing containers are available. Would a solution that supports multiple systems be allowed? I know that since version 218 systemd has supported using docker images directly. I don't believe it would be difficult to allow multiple systems to be configured. Thanks! -Mark -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-gsoc/attachments/20150325/af71f12f/attachment-0005.html>
