Containerd is a container runtime which can work as the layer between the Docker engine and the OCI runc executor.
Stuff you wanna know:
- Containerd is a graduated project within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.
- Containerd has built-in support for Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface (CRI).
- Containerd is available as a daemon for Linux and Windows.
- Containerd is designed to be embedded into a larger system, rather than being used directly by developers or end-users.
