When conducting performance benchmarks, the ultimate goal is an apples-to-apples comparison. Docker, widely recognized as one of the most brilliant inventions of the last 15 years, offers a level of reproducibility that allows engineers to share applications running on a test bed. Consequently, containers have become a practicable standard for replicating tests.
However, significant caveats remain. When producing different applications for testing, containers often remain dependent on the host operating system or the kernel updates being used. This…
