Docker doesn’t need to portable because containers are…
I don’t even understand this logic.
Comment on Docker in LXC vs VM
DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 3 months agoIf you do that, Docker is stuck on that host. If it’s in an LXC it can move to another host. Plus, backing up and snapshotting are easier IMO.

Snapshotting in docker is as easy as
docker commit
. After that you can back it up withdocker save
. Then move to another host, but not without downtime.However normally you need to backup/move only volumes attached to containers. If that’s not the way how you like to organize your services, you likely don’t need docker.
