# OVERVIEW #
Porto is a yet another Linux container management system, developed by Yandex.
The main goal is providing single entry point for several Linux subsystems
such as cgroups, namespaces, mounts, networking, etc.
Porto is intended to be a base for large infrastructure projects.
## Key Features
* **Nested containers** - containers could be put into containers
* **Nested virtualizaion** - containers could use porto service too
* **Flexible configuration** - all container parameters are optional
* **Reliable service** - porto upgrades without restarting containers
Container management software build on top of porto could be transparently
enclosed inside porto container.
Porto provides a protobuf interface via an unix socket /run/portod.socket.
Command line tool **portoctl** and C++, Python and Go APIs are included.
Porto requires Linux kernel 3.18 and optionally some offstream patches.
