Great video that gives the low-down on containers vs VMs! I never realised that Containers can't be live-migrated until I saw this video though it makes sense since they're originally meant to be quick to spin-up/ deconstruct on-the-fly The way I look at it, containers are like a set of applications/ software that can share dependencies (including the host OS itself). So it's like if you had Java installed on a computer and 5 applications that need Java, they can share that installation of Java without needing 5 separate installations of it. OTOH, a VM is just a full blown 'computer' including the OS and nothing is shared at all - hence, requiring much more resources.

idk why proxmox in forum ask to run everything in VM, not in CT. So why they support CT in first place? simple - nice job showing ct/vm with migration!
