How far a naive FreeBSD container implementation can go - Luca Pizzamiglio - EuroBSDcon 2022
Channel: EuroBSDcon
Date: 2022-10-27

In this talk, I'm going to present the current status of `pot`, a framework to
provide container-alike workflow on FreeBSD.

`pot` started in 2018 and it has been developed mainly in shell scripts (the
naive part of the title) to prove that FreeBSD is ready to support containers.

While speaking about the current status, I'll talk about the last 2 years
development, the challenges to make the framework "production ready" and what is still missing.

I'll also present all the related projects, like Nomad support and Pothub, a
community driven public registry for `pot` images.

Additionally, I'm going to present some personal opinion about containers in
FreeBSD, based on my experience in the project.
