BMC (Bare-Metal Container) is relased

[Kuniyasu Suzaki]

I made a presentation of BMC at HPCC (IEEE Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications) 2016.
   http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2016/hpcc/
The title is "Bare-Metal Container --- Direct execution of a container image on a remote machine with an optimized kernel ---".
The slide is opened at slideshare.

BMC is resemble to VMware's "vSphere Integrated Containers" and Joyent's "Triton", but 
BMC is designed to customize Linux kernel for an application in a Docker image.
   VMware's "vSphere Integrated Containers"  http://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere/integrated-containers.html
   Jyoent's "Triton"  https://www.joyent.com/triton

BMC runs a Docker image with a customized kernel on a bare-metal remote machine using remote machine management technology (WakeupOnLan, Intel AMT, or IPMI) and network bootloader "iPXE".
BMC can solve the container's (Docker's) problem which is caused by Linux kernel.

> Hello,
> 
> We released BMC (Bare-Metal Container) which runs a container (Docker)
> image with a suitable Linux kernel on a remote physical machine.
> BMC allows to change the kernel and its settings for the container
> (Docker) image. As a result, the application extracts the full
> performance of the physical machine.
> 
> A pre-built BMC image using DIND (Docker in Docker) technique is
> offered. Users can avid burdensome setting up (ex. Apache CGI, etc).
> We strongly recommend new users to try this pre-built version.
