Description

The Open Container Initiative (OCI) serves as an open governance framework aimed at developing industry-wide standards for container formats and runtimes. Launched on June 22, 2015, by Docker alongside other prominent figures in the container sector, the OCI encompasses two main specifications: the runtime specification (runtime-spec) and the image specification (image-spec). The runtime specification delineates the process for executing a "filesystem bundle" that has been extracted onto a disk. In practice, an OCI implementation would download an OCI Image, subsequently unpacking it into a corresponding OCI Runtime filesystem bundle. Following this, the OCI Runtime is responsible for executing the OCI Runtime Bundle. Additionally, the OCI operates as a lightweight governance project under the Linux Foundation, promoting transparency and collaboration within the container ecosystem. Its establishment marked a significant step forward towards unifying diverse container technologies and ensuring interoperability across platforms.

Description

Rkt is an advanced application container engine crafted specifically for contemporary cloud-native environments in production. Its design incorporates a pod-native methodology, a versatile execution environment, and a clearly defined interface, making it exceptionally compatible with other systems. The fundamental execution unit in rkt is the pod, which consists of one or more applications running in a shared context, paralleling the pod concept used in Kubernetes orchestration. Users can customize various configurations, including isolation parameters, at both the pod level and the more detailed per-application level. In rkt, each pod operates directly within the traditional Unix process model, meaning there is no central daemon, allowing for a self-sufficient and isolated environment. Rkt also adopts a contemporary, open standard container format known as the App Container (appc) specification, while retaining the ability to run other container images, such as those generated by Docker. This flexibility and adherence to standards contribute to rkt's growing popularity among developers seeking robust container solutions.
