runc is docker

What do you like best?

I like how it is a lightweight version of docker. This way it is cost saving for deployments to places such as aws. Due to the structure of aws which everyone is going for. The more space a container needs usually means the more cost it is and also the longer it takes to start up.

What do you dislike?

I dislike that because it is a lightweight version of docker some stuff that was made for docker might not work correctly without much changes.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Make sure to first use docker to get an idea of how to make and run a container.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

using runc allow the aws containers to be smaller which means extra savings for the company
