gVisor is an application kernel developed by Google that provides a strong layer of isolation between applications and the host operating system. Written in Go, it implements a Linux-compatible system call interface that runs entirely in user space, creating a secure sandboxed environment for containers. Unlike traditional virtual machines or lightweight syscall filters, gVisor follows a third approach that offers many of the security benefits of virtualization while maintaining the speed,...

lmctfy is Google’s open-source container runtime that exposed Linux cgroups and namespaces through a higher-level API, predating the widespread adoption of modern container tools. It offered a daemon and client for creating, updating, and destroying resource-isolated “containers” with quotas on CPU, memory, and other subsystems. The project focused on operational safety—clean hierarchies, accounting, and predictable behavior under resource pressure—reflecting lessons from running containers at scale. Although it has since been archived in favor of the broader ecosystem, the code remains a reference for how to map kernel primitives to service-oriented container management. ...
