Fault tolerance for containers in a virtualized computing environment

摘要

Example methods are described to provide fault tolerance for a container in a virtualized computing environment that includes a first virtual machine and a second virtual machine. The method may comprise detecting a failure at the first virtual machine. The container may be supported by the first virtual machine to run an application on a first operating system of the first virtual machine. The method may further comprise providing data relating to the container to the second virtual machine; and based on the data relating to the container, resuming the container in the second virtual machine to run the application on a second operating system of the second virtual machine.
