Kata Containers has just released version 1.0. The technology is basically qemu but with all hardware virtualization removed. Intel has been working on it for a couple of ears and it was highly talked about at the big OpenStack meetup in Canada in May 2018. https://katacontainers.io/ --[[User:Svintoo|Svintoo]] 2018-05-29 09:14 (UTC)
== Add information about HP-UX Containers/SRPs ==
HP-UX Containers (formerly known as Secure Resource Partitions) https://h20392.www2.hpe.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=HP-UX-SRP are the HP-UX OS-level virtualization technology and the counterpart to Solaris zones and AIX WPARs (Workload Partitions). <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/157.203.176.133|157.203.176.133]] ([[User talk:157.203.176.133#top|talk]]) 14:09, 10 December 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

[[:Operating-system-level virtualization]] → {{no redirect|Container (computing)}} – "Container" is the more common term today and is more "intuitively understandable" than "operating system–level virtualization". [[User:Qzekrom|Qzekrom]] ([[User talk:Qzekrom|talk]]) 02:19, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I propose to rename the page to "Containers" or "Containers technology" or "Containerization" or something similar. The thing is, "Operating system-level virtualization" is quite long, complex and not definitive. Containers, on the other hand, is intuitively understandable. --[[User:K001|K001]] ([[User talk:K001|talk]]) 22:27, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Or Jails due FreeBSD started this on 2000 and SUN containers was implemented on 2005. Is good as is "Operating system-level virtualization" <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/62.106.50.48|62.106.50.48]] ([[User talk:62.106.50.48|talk]]) 09:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
→ → → Giving this a Bump....Would be good to rename, especially given the increased container notoriety within the entire industry - not just admins (TY Docker, Rkt, Mesos, Kub, etc) which is leading to significant confusion associated with full virtualization (VMWare/Hyper-V).

: I agree with this. "Container" seems to be the most popular name for this technology by far. [[User:Qzekrom|Qzekrom]] ([[User talk:Qzekrom|talk]]) 02:12, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
* '''Move over [[Container (virtualization)]]''', which redirects to it. The proposed title fails [[WP:PRECISE]]: we have [[Container (computer science)]] as a redirect to [[Container (abstract data type)]], which also has redirects [[Container class]], [[Container object]], and [[Container (programming)]]. There is also [[Container Linux by CoreOS|Container Linux]]. [[Special:Contributions/94.21.238.64|94.21.238.64]] ([[User talk:94.21.238.64|talk]]) 05:21, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
** Good catch, anon. I prefer that. [[User:Qzekrom|Qzekrom]] ([[User talk:Qzekrom|talk]]) 23:07, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
* '''Use "Container (virtualization)"''' per the above discussion, which captured the objection I was going to make, myself, to "Container (computing)"; a disambiguation that just creates another ambiguity is a failure. However, the "(virtualization)" disambig seems [[WP:PRECISE]] enough for our purposes. I agree with nom that the current name is absurd; it's a total [[WP:COMMONNAME]] and [[WP:RECOGNIZABLE]] failure. Virtually no one is going to use the phrase "operating-system-level virtualization" to look for this topic, however accurate it may be as a descriptive definition (and I'm not entirely sure it really is accurate). <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 01:43, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
