How different is application virtualization from container virtualization?












0















In container virtualization (such as Docker), a container shares the same linux kernel with all other containers on the same machine, but they have different execution environments.



In application virtualization (such as wine),




only one computer program is placed in an isolated container and
the isolation in terms of resources applies to file system only.




Do multiple programs run in their own "isolated containers" in application virtualization also "share the same linux kernel" and "have different execution environments", as container virtualization?



Thanks.
