Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs.
The code is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. See the license file for further details.
Kata Containers currently runs on 64-bit systems supporting the following technologies:
| Architecture | Virtualization technology |
|---|---|
x86_64, amd64 | Intel VT-x, AMD SVM |
aarch64 (“arm64“) | ARM Hyp |
ppc64le | IBM Power |
s390x | IBM Z & LinuxONE SIE |
The Kata Containers runtime provides a command to determine if your host system is capable of running and creating a Kata Container:
