Summary

This chapter detailed the process of developing containers from LXC templates. We explored the promise of LXC containers in Proxmox VE, and outlined an example use case that could be generalized to other circumstances and that demonstrated how the Proxmox VE container's features could add value, flexibility, and extensibility to an organization's IT infrastructure.

After describing how to derive a container from a template, we explored ways to manipulate containers from both the command line and the web interface.

In Chapter 4, Creating Virtual Machines, we will identify advantages of virtual machines over containers and explore some use cases. At the close of the chapter, we'll have walked through the creation of Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux ...
