BLOG POST:
Taking a Stand Against Container Fragmentation...with Standards
At Red Hat, our involvement in open source technologies does not just revolve around code commits and community stewardship; one important focus is on the creation of standards. It may sound boring, but open standards applied to emerging software technologies can go far in not only fostering adoption but also helping to further drive innovation... While Red Hat fully embraces the innovation of Linux containers (and we helped drive several of the critical technology pieces upon which containers are based), we are also committed to the development and adoption of four key standards areas within the Linux container community.
