> Since everyone is treating containers as cattle CRIU doesn't seem to get much attention Yeah, I guess that's probably the reason. If you're engineering your workloads with the idea that the world might "poof" out from under you at any moment you'd never wonder about / reach for something like CRIU. It's a trick that I'd never much thought about, but now that I've learned it exists (so many years late) I find myself wondering about the path not taken here. It feels like it should be incredibly useful... but I can't figure out exactly what I'd want to do with it myself. |

Check out mainframes and Tandem systems for a peek at that path. Lots of support in those systems for the notion your application’s substrate might suddenly go poof, and you need it to recover from where it left off as instantaneously as possible.
It’s expensive.
