Well, I did a podcast back in Episode 22 (crikey! 2022) covering a few of the key points regarding Docker vs WASM. • • It seems WASM (Web Assembly) and WASI (Web Assembly Infrastructure) is continuing to gain strength. WASM containers could be a more lightweight option and will run anywhere - no need to switch from Linux to Windows containers. • • Anyway, take a listen to find out more! :) • • Some links that can provide a deeper dive if you wish: • • InfoWorld Article on WASM vs Docker (https://www.infoworld.com/article/360...) • • Yes! You can run WASM based Docker stuff! (https://www.docker.com/blog/docker-wa...) • • If you really must support me, please do here via Patreon :) (https://patreon.com/justfivemins?utm_...) • • .. and further information on the Docker infrastructure vs Containerd runtime: • • Docker • • Docker is a comprehensive platform for developing, shipping, and running applications inside containers. It includes several components: • • Docker Engine: The core part of Docker, responsible for creating and managing containers. • • Docker CLI: The command-line interface for interacting with Docker. • • Docker Compose: A tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. • • Docker Hub: A registry for storing and sharing container images. • • containerd • • containerd is a container runtime that focuses solely on managing the container lifecycle. It was originally part of Docker but was later separated to become an independent project. Key features include: • • Container Lifecycle Management: Handles the creation, execution, and supervision of containers. • • Image Management: Manages container images, including pulling from registries and storing locally. • • Storage and Networking: Manages storage and networking for containers. • • OCI Compliance: Uses Open Container Initiative (OCI)-compliant runtimes like runc for standardization and interoperability. • • Key Differences • • Scope: Docker is a full-fledged platform with tools for building, shipping, and running containers, while containerd is a more lightweight runtime focused on managing the container lifecycle2. • • Components: Docker includes additional tools like Docker Compose and Docker Hub, whereas containerd is primarily concerned with the runtime aspects. • • Usage: Docker is often used for development and deployment workflows, providing a user-friendly interface and additional features. containerd is used as a backend component in larger systems like Kubernetes, where it handles the low-level container operations. • • In summary, Docker provides a complete ecosystem for container management, while containerd focuses on the core runtime functionalities, making it suitable for integration into other container orchestration systems. • • • • • • This is a public episode.
