Morning Tom,
Thanks for this and the welcome.
Just a question what advantages does podman have over docker and other container
platforms? Is there additional security that podman offers that the other platforms
don’t?
Regards,
Jonathan

Good Morning,
I have a quick question regarding podman, is it meant to be a replacement for docker and
or Kubernetes, or does it work hand in hand with them?
Regards,
Jonathan
Simple answer Yes.
Podman can work alongside of Docker or it can replace it. As noted on the podman.io
website:
Simply put: alias docker=podman.
We also work with Kubernetes with these commands:
http://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-generate-kube.1.html
http://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-play-kube.1.html
But for a richer Kubernetes environment, you might want to look at CRI-O https://cri-o.io/
and it's GitHub repo (https://github.com/cri-o/cri-o). Others more involved than I
with the Kubernetes side of things will likely have more insight.
Welcome to the Podman community!
