bootc: Generating an ecosystem around bootable OCI containers (asg2024)

Containers have become the de facto choice for deploying most applications, and all of us benefit from the isolation, portability, and the surrounding ecosystem. In this talk we’ll take a deep dive into the world of bootable containers, using the same ideas, goals and technology for the host system (whether virtualized or bare metal). We’ll look at the bootc project under the github.com/containers umbrella and its current flagship distribution usage in the new Fedora/CentOS bootc project and initiative. We hope you are as excited as we are by taking cloud-native approaches down to the operating system level, and a key goal is finding points that can be shared with other components of the ecosystem, from the uapi-group.org to other container-based OSes.
