The Container Ecosystem Project

The Container Ecosystem Project, initiated by Sysdig, aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the diverse technologies within the evolving container and microservices ecosystem. This initiative categorizes various technologies from foundational core container technologies to fully developed container platforms and support tools, offering descriptions and examples of each. It distinguishes between open-source and commercial solutions, with specific columns for Docker and CoreOS, two leading open-source contributors. The project is designed as a living document that encourages community contributions for updates and improvements, facilitating easier navigation and understanding of the container landscape for both newcomers and seasoned experts. The goal is to present a clear, organized survey of the core technologies in the container ecosystem, helping users grasp the microservices stack and explore further with provided keywords and additional resources.
