This document discusses the app container runtime rkt. It provides an overview of rkt, including what it is, its goals, and how it differs from Docker. Key points include:
- Rkt implements the Application Container (appc) specification and allows running containerized applications.
- Its goals are fast downloads/starts, verifiable/cacheable images, composability, and using common technologies like DNS for discovery.
- It differs from Docker in being more composable without a central daemon, focusing more on security through image verification, and using an open standard for images instead of Docker's format.
- The document demonstrates downloading images, verifying signatures, running containers in pods with options like
