Sure, docker-compose is great, but could we get similar functionality using just the tools that are built into CoreOS? Can we get automatic updates, too? Yes we can! 📦
on surface they may look like they are overlapping solutions to the untrained eye.
You’ll need to elaborate on this, since AFAIK Podman is literally meant as a replacement for Docker. My untrained eye can’t see what your trained eye can see under the surface.
The two are not hot-swappable solutions (as much as podman tries to act as a drop-in replacement for docker). Trying to replace one with the other after coming from extended use of either will immediately let you know of the stark differences between them.
Perhaps I misunderstand the words “overlapping” and “hot-swappable” in this case, I’m not a native english speaker. To my knowledge they’re not the same thing.
In my opinion wanting to run an extra service as root to be able to e.g. serve a webapp on an unprivileged port is just strange. But I’ve been using Podman for quite some time. Using Docker after Podman is a real pain, I’ll give you that.
I am not a native english speaker either but it seems like you are trying to understand those two words outside of their context as used in the sentences I’ve replied. They are only meant to be understood in the context of the conversation. In this case, the two terms mean almost interchangable. Look up the meaning of both words and try to apply them as previously used.
In my opinion wanting to run an extra service as root to be able to e.g. serve a webapp on an unprivileged port is just strange.
Often times we don’t get to choose the software solutions that we will eventually use, they choose us. Colloquially speaking.
