With the release of 3.20, LXD was included into the community repository of Arch Linux in January, and has currently been sitting there happily for the past months. LXD is a container manager from Canonical that manages containers as if they where independent machines in a cluster. I have somehow taken to calling them “containers-as-machines”. This is in contrast to podman and docker which would be “containers-as-applications”. Think of lxd as ganeti, but for containers.
