    Virtuozzo
    If you are considering to use Docker and Kubernetes then you can give a try to OpenVZ and Proxmox. It is a good alternative and it is as good as Docker and Kubernetes

    Virtuozzo
    • Since it is a container-based solution, you can't run any other OS, except for Linux
    • It is not so popular as Docker, but it's not that bad

    Virtuozzo
    Kubernetes and Docker are de-facto standards today, but I think that OpenVZ and Proxmox are better solutions
