Isolated Container Runtime (Harshal Patil, IBM) - Docker by default uses a container runtime called ‘runc’ to run containers using cgroups and namespaces. But Docker by design can run one or many runtimes, simultaneously. In this presentation, Harshal Patil will showcase alternative runtime that is aimed at achieving higher isolation for the application running inside containers using Qemu. Higher isolation is useful for applications which require the agility of containers but strong isolation provided by virtual machines, such as smart contract execution by blockchain (such as Hyperledger).
