For those like me still learning.

Linux Containers (LXC) is an operating system-level virtualization method for running multiple isolated Linux systems (containers) on a control host using a single Linux kernel.

They're super useful when running Proxmox. You can create an LXC container and have it booted to a shell in under a minute

  Rhel5 on a VM booted in under a minute easily. Rhel6 on a VM booted in around a minute. Rhel7 on a VM booted in almost a minute, and the trend accelerated from there. Wow, is RhelX a piece for its frail-boat booting.

So it’s Docker with extra steps?

  Fewer steps actually, since it is built into the kernel
