Enabling rootless Linux Containers in multi-user environments: the udocker tool
arXiv:1711.01758 · doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2018.05.021
Abstract
Containers are increasingly used as means to distribute and run Linux services and applications. In this paper we describe the architectural design and implementation of udocker, a tool which enables the user to execute Linux containers in user mode. We also present a few practical applications, using a range of scientific codes characterized by different requirements: from single core execution to MPI parallel execution and execution on GPGPUs.
