Like spinning up an instance, let's just say like an Incas.
Are you familiar with the Incas by any chance?
Sorry.
Canonical used to have LXD.
So you know that you got LXC.
And I don't even use those.
I'm not super versed.
This is where I'm exploring and learning more about.
So I'm sure my audience will be like, Adam, get yourself up to speed here.
Okay, I'll attempt to follow this here.
Inkus is like system-level containers.
So versus Docker, where it's a protocol, it runs on systemd, it spins up instances, and it is a Go binary.
It's built on Go.
The person who invented it for Canonical, Ubuntu's parent company,
It was called LXD.
I think they had a license snafu.
I don't know what happened there, but something happened licensing-wise that made Canonical change the direction of it and remove it away from, I believe it's linuxcontainers.org, if I can recall.
Let me just double-check my notes here so I don't...
jack up that, yeah, linuxcontainers.org, which if you go there, you will see Incus, you'll see IncusOS, you'll see LXC, which is something you use in Proxmox, DistroBuilder, which can do some cool stuff with like building distributions.
But Incas, let me actually go to their homepage so I don't actually jack up what they say.
