Nestybox

match 61

Nestybox creates software that enables Linux containers to act like virtual machines. This increases the use cases for containers and gives enterprises a less expensive and more flexible alternative to virtual machines in many scenarios. Our first product is a "container runtime", the software that creates the containers. It's called "Sysbox" and integrates with the popular Docker and Kubernetes engines, enabling these tools to deploy containers that act like virtual machines. This technology pr
