Containers in VMs: The Real-World Architecture
If running containers on bare metal were the best approach, hyperscalers would be using it. Instead, they run containers inside virtual machines—and an increasing number of enterprises are following the same model. According to IDC, 85% of containers are expected to run in VMs by 2028.
In this video, we explore:
➡️ Why major cloud providers run customer containers in virtual machines
➡️ The operational and scaling challenges of bare-metal container deployments
➡️ How strong isolation and infrastructure agility are achieved at scale
This isn’t about legacy practices—it’s about choosing architectures that deliver predictable performance, security, and the flexibility to adapt without being constrained by hardware.
