warden

Manages isolated, ephemeral, and resource controlled environments.

Introduction

The project's primary goal is to provide a simple API for managing isolated environments. These isolated environments -- or containers -- can be limited in terms of CPU usage, memory usage, disk usage, and network access. As of writing, the only supported OS is Linux.

Components

This repository contains the following components:

• warden -- server
• warden-protocol -- protocol definition, used by both the server and clients
• warden-client -- client (Ruby)
• em-warden-client -- client (Ruby's EventMachine)

For information on how to run the warden server and interact with it at the command line, see the warden server README.
