Abstract: A filesystem can be shared between containers. For example, a computing device having a host filesystem can launch a first container from an image file. Launching the first container can include creating an initialization directory for the first container on the host filesystem. The initialization directory can include a filesystem to be shared between containers. Launching the first container can also include creating a first filesystem directory for the first container on the host filesystem and mounting the initialization directory to the first filesystem directory. The computing device can also launch a second container from the image file. Launching the second container can include creating a second filesystem directory for the second container on the host filesystem and mounting the initialization directory to the second filesystem directory to enable the second container to access the filesystem.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for coordinating an inter-operable Platform as a Service (PaaS) layer and an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) layer. In one example, the method includes receiving, by a processing device associated with a PaaS layer, a message indicating a resource status associated with a plurality of resources of an IaaS layer, determining, by the processing device, a resource among the plurality of resources in the IaaS layer to instantiate a platform service of the PaaS layer, the determining is based on the message indicating the resource status associated with the plurality of resources of the IaaS layer; and transmitting, by the processing device, a message directing the IaaS layer to instantiate the platform service on the determined resource in the IaaS layer.

Abstract: An example method of debugging an application running in a container includes detecting, by a kernel, a system call from an application running in a container. The method also includes performing a capability check based on detection of the system call. The capability check provides a set of capabilities used by the system call. The method further includes associating the system call with the set of capabilities and providing debug information based on the application run in the container. The debug information includes the association between the system call and the set of capabilities.
