Container Commandos Coloring Book
Container Commandos Coloring Book
A supercomet exploded in our solar system and rubble is hurtling towards us.
The Global Superhero Alliance must deploy a shield to protect—and save—the planet.
The alliance has partnered with Containers 'R' Us to develop, build, deploy, and manage the
container-based, anti-rubble protective shield. Containers 'R' Us delivers containers from a
centralized launch station.
"Containers 'R' Us! Run the incoming object detection container!"
WHIRRRRRR...
"We've lost contact with all "They’re all launched from
containers! What happened?" the central station—a
single process. When the
process hung, it cut us off
"Oh no... is there from our containers."
any hope?"
A crack team of individual superheroes, each with strengths tailored for specific container
purposes, all collaborating together but no single one overriding all...
PODMAN!
SUPERPOWER:
Low-level, daemonless container image management
A command-line tool for the development of containers. Run standalone, non-orchestrated
containers as well as groups of containers called 'pods.' Podman makes it quick, easy, and
lightweight to develop, test, and debug containers.

BUILDAH!
SUPERPOWER:
Builds container images
Build both working containers and images in various formats, most notably the open
container image (OCI) format. Buildah lets you mount and modify the image’s filesystem
layer to create a new image. It provides low-level container image constructs so other,
higher-level tools can build images in new and interesting ways and it supports Dockerfiles.

SKOPEO!
SUPERPOWER:
Teleports containers
Skopeo inspects remote container images on registries, but it's more powerful than that. It
can copy images between different container image stores or directly into docker daemon or
containers/storage—sharing it with CRI-O, buildah, and podman. Skopeo can also convert
between Docker and OCI images.

cri-o!
SUPERPOWER:
Runs containers in production
A container runtime based on the Open Container Initiative and the Kubernetes Container
Runtime Interface (CRI). Once your containers are ready to run in production, CRI-O can
help. It specializes in servicing the needs of the Kubernetes orchestrator—pulling images,
creating containers on them, and removing them from the system.

OPENSHIFT!
SUPERPOWER:
Orchestrates containers and container images
Red Hat OpenShift is a container application platform that brings containers to the enterprise.
OpenShift includes Kubernetes to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of
containerized apps. It also adds developer- and operations-centric tools that enable rapid
application development, easy deployment and scaling, and long-term life-cycle maintenance
for teams.
