Top 23 Container Open-Source Projects

  • kubernetes

    Production-Grade Container Scheduling and Management

  • Project mention: The guide to kubectl I never had. | dev.to | 2024-05-06

    Iā€™m joking of course. Iā€™m not really sure about what a faded keyboard says about its owner. What I do know for sure is how important kubectl is to anybody who wants to be a proficient Kubernetes administrator.

  • Netdata

    The open-source observability platform everyone needs

  • Project mention: A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev | dev.to | 2024-02-05

    netdata.cloud ā€” Netdata is an open-source tool to collect real-time metrics. It's a growing product and can also be found on GitHub!

  • minikube

    Run Kubernetes locally

  • Project mention: Building Llama as a Service (LaaS) | dev.to | 2024-04-08

    With the containerized Node.js/Express API, I could run multiple containers, scaling to handle more traffic. Using a tool called minikube, we can easily spin up a local Kubernetes cluster to horizontally scale Docker containers. It was possible to keep one shared instance of the database, and many APIs were routed with an internal Kubernetes load balancer.

  • Dokku

    A docker-powered PaaS that helps you build and manage the lifecycle of applications

  • Project mention: Open-source alternative to Heroku, Vercel, and Netlify | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-29

    Would be great to see a comparison to some better known alternatives like

    - Dokku [0]

  • 90DaysOfDevOps

    This repository started out as a learning in public project for myself and has now become a structured learning map for many in the community. We have 3 years under our belt covering all things DevOps, including Principles, Processes, Tooling and Use Cases surrounding this vast topic.

  • firecracker

    Secure and fast microVMs for serverless computing.

  • Project mention: Lambda Internals: Why AWS Lambda Will Not Help With Machine Learning | dev.to | 2024-04-25

    This architecture leverages microVMs for rapid scaling and high-density workloads. But does it work for GPU? The answer is no. You can look at the old 2019 GitHub issue and the comments to it to get the bigger picture of why it is so.

  • dapr

    Dapr is a portable, event-driven, runtime for building distributed applications across cloud and edge.

  • Project mention: .NET Aspire is the best way to experiment with Dapr during local development | dev.to | 2024-05-04

    Dapr provides a set of building blocks that abstract concepts commonly used in distributed systems. This includes secured synchronous and asynchronous communication between services, caching, workflows, resiliency, secret management and much more. Not having to implement these features yourself eliminates boilerplate, reduce complexity and allows you to focus on developing your business features.

  • rancher

    Complete container management platform

  • Project mention: OpenTF Announces Fork of Terraform | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-25

    Did something happen to the Apache 2 rancher? https://github.com/rancher/rancher/blob/v2.7.5/LICENSE RKE2 is similarly Apache 2: https://github.com/rancher/rke2/blob/v1.26.7%2Brke2r1/LICENS...

  • Harbor

    An open source trusted cloud native registry project that stores, signs, and scans content.

  • Project mention: Docker Private Registry using Harbor | dev.to | 2024-04-20

    cat << EOF wget \ https://github.com/goharbor/harbor/releases/download/v2.9.4/\ harbor-offline-installer-v2.9.4.tgz EOF

  • lens

    Lens - The way the world runs Kubernetes

  • Project mention: Mirantis K8s Lens closed its source | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-24
  • podman

    Podman: A tool for managing OCI containers and pods.

  • Project mention: How I ended up using Colima for Docker on Apple Silicon | dev.to | 2024-05-03

    A lot of well-known Docker alternatives emerged at this point, the most commonly recommended of which must be Podman (along with Podman Desktop). This is what I use on my Windows machines, and this was the first solution that I tried on the Macbook as well.

  • trivy

    Find vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, secrets, SBOM in containers, Kubernetes, code repositories, clouds and more

  • Project mention: Cloud Security and Resilience: DevSecOps Tools and Practices | dev.to | 2024-05-01

    4. Trivy: https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy Trivy is a versatile tool that scans for vulnerabilities in your containers, and also checks for vulnerabilities in your application dependencies.

  • Pulumi

    Pulumi - Infrastructure as Code in any programming language. Build infrastructure intuitively on any cloud using familiar languages šŸš€

  • Project mention: How To Implement AWS SSB Controls in Terraform - Part 4 | dev.to | 2024-04-10

    If you are following this blog series, you should already know the benefits of using Terraform to define and deploy your AWS resources and configuration. Other IaC solutions such as AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, and Pulumi work the same way but differs in the programming or configuration language.

  • cilium

    eBPF-based Networking, Security, and Observability

  • Project mention: Cisco to Acquire Cloud Native Networking and Security Leader Isovalent | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-21

    They would have had to add a few externals to get to Graduated but it's definitely a minority:

  • Lean and Mean Docker containers

    Slim(toolkit): Don't change anything in your container image and minify it by up to 30x (and for compiled languages even more) making it secure too! (free and open source)

  • Project mention: Optimize Your Containerized App with SlimToolkit | dev.to | 2024-05-07

    SlimToolkit empowers developers to create better, smaller, and more secure containers without sacrificing their existing workflows. Explore the project on GitHub or visit the official website to learn more.

  • colima

    Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup

  • Project mention: How I ended up using Colima for Docker on Apple Silicon | dev.to | 2024-05-03

    While looking into the issue with Podman, I came across colima. Apart from being able to run AMD64 images out of the box, there were additional benefits to it, one of which was, unlike podman, colima could use Rosetta 2 for x64 emulation (which is significantly more performant).

  • containerd

    An open and reliable container runtime

  • Project mention: Exploring 5 Docker Alternatives: Containerization Choices for 2024 | dev.to | 2024-03-18

    Containerd and nerdctl

  • kops

  • Project mention: CVE-2023-1943: Privilege Escalation in kOps using GCE/GCP Provider in Gossip Mode Issue #15539 kubernetes/kops | /r/devopsish | 2023-06-22
  • cosmopolitan

    build-once run-anywhere c library

  • Project mention: Python Is Portable | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-15

    The reality is a bit different, the work on Python 3.6 was checked into the Cosmopolitan repo and I have been able to use it for production workloads that are in pure python. [0]

    As Cosmopolitan Libc has evolved, it has been possible to compile more software without modifications, and that includes latest Python through a project called superconfigure[1].

    Last person who tried to reproduce it from scratch did it last week (granted it too them a few days of solid work) but in the end they ended with a portable binary with Python 3.11.9, brotli, ssl and asyncio for their work related project.[2]

  • ctop

    Top-like interface for container metrics

  • Project mention: Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-06
  • gvisor

    Application Kernel for Containers

  • Project mention: Maestro: A Linux-compatible kernel in Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-03

    Isn't gVisor kind of this as well?

    "gVisor is an application kernel for containers. It limits the host kernel surface accessible to the application while still giving the application access to all the features it expects. Unlike most kernels, gVisor does not assume or require a fixed set of physical resources; instead, it leverages existing host kernel functionality and runs as a normal process. In other words, gVisor implements Linux by way of Linux."
