  • Creating Kubernetes Cluster With CRI-O
    7 projects | dev.to | 30 Jul 2023
    It is an open-source, community-driven project which supports OCI-based container registries. It is being maintained by contributors working in Red Hat, Intel, etc. It also comes with a monitoring program known as conmon. Conmon is an OCI container runtime monitor, which makes the communication between CRI-O and runc for a single container.
  • Which alternative for slirp4netns in rootless containers is better?

    When considering using socket activation it's good to know that socket-activation has the advantage that you can create on-demand services. And in the future you might be able to do container image upgrades without loosing an active TCP connection https://github.com/containers/conmon/issues/393 (Right now it's just a feature request that I wrote).
  • Docker is dead?!? Podman - an alternative tool?
    12 projects | dev.to | 8 Jul 2022
    This was a wrong assumption. Podman directly uses runC or crun instead of containerd using a technology named conmon. Some more useful information can be found in this article.
  • Podman: A Daemonless Container Engine
    12 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Feb 2021
    Well, "daemonless" is kind of marketing - there is still this daemon-per-container 'conmon' thing https://github.com/containers/conmon and I don't get why it is needed because 1) who actually needs to re-attach anyway? 2) container's streams are already properly handled by whatever supervisor (e.g. systemd). You can't disable conmon and I'm not sure if its usage is not hardcoded throughout the codebase.

    I would very much like to use Podman as a finally proper container launcher in production (non-FAANG scale - at which you maybe start to need k8s), but having an unnecessary daemon moving part in thousands lines of C makes me frown so far.
