Solaris to Linux Migration 2017
Nice article! Though I do think the article could have more clearly noted that Linux containers are not meant as security boundaries. It doesn&#x27;t explicitly say it but it is a very important distinction.<p>Unlike FreeBSD jails and Solaris Zones. You can&#x27;t run multiple docker tennant&#x27;s safely on the same hardware. Docker is basically the equivalent of a sign which says: &quot;don&#x27;t walk on the grass&quot; as opposed to an actual wall which FreeBSD jails and Solaris zones have. Now if you have a very homogene environment (say you are deploying hundreds of instances of the exact same app) then this is probably fine. Docker is primarily a deployment tool. If your an organization which runs all kinds of applications (with varying levels of security quality) that&#x27;s an entirely different story.
