Description

Oversee containers, virtual machines, networks, and storage all from one unified platform. By integrating ManageIQ with your management systems for virtualization, containers, networks, and storage, it can automatically detect inventory, establish mappings of relationships, and monitor any changes. This integration results in a comprehensive, current, and interrelated dataset that underpins our sophisticated management functionalities. You can create resource bundles and make them available in a service catalog for end users to request easily. After provisioning, the entire lifecycle of the service can be managed, encompassing aspects such as policy enforcement, compliance checks, delegated operations, chargeback/showback, and eventual decommissioning. Additionally, you can perform content scans of your virtual machines, hosts, and containers, merging this with auto-discovered information to formulate advanced security and compliance protocols. Notably, this content scanning capability operates without requiring an agent, allowing it to function effectively even for external or non-cooperative virtual machines. This flexibility ensures robust security measures are in place, regardless of the environment.

Description

balenaEngine is a specialized container engine designed specifically for embedded systems and IoT applications, utilizing technology from the Moby Project by Docker. It is significantly smaller than Docker CE, boasting a size reduction of 3.5 times and is distributed as a single binary. This engine is compatible with a diverse range of chipset architectures, catering to everything from small IoT devices to larger industrial gateways. It offers bandwidth-efficient updates using binary diffs that can be 10 to 70 times smaller compared to the traditional method of pulling layers in various scenarios. To mitigate excessive disk writing and safeguard against potential storage corruption, it extracts layers as they are received. Additionally, its atomic and durable image pulls ensure protection against incomplete container downloads in case of power interruptions. The design also minimizes page cache thrashing during image pulls, allowing applications to run smoothly even in low-memory environments. In summary, balenaEngine is an innovative solution that not only supports Docker containers but also enhances bandwidth efficiency for container updates. This makes it an ideal choice for developers seeking reliability and efficiency in IoT and embedded systems.
