oci support

[f0]

Hi,

any plans to implement oci support?

I think rkt is still not ready to support OCI.
Also on our side ACI is working pretty well so it's not a big priority.
We will probably start working on it in 3-6 months.

I was also interested in running OCI built with dgr mainly because of runc startup speed (can rkt be as fast?).
I found aci2oci converter but did not test it.

This is our plan too. rkt is flatting overlay and so is slow to start.
It's good for production, but not so much for dev iteration. Using aci2oci will not help since dgr is currently relying on rkt to build.

Now we are not sure yet if with runc, we will be able to meet the whole feature set of dgr.
Expecially since we are able to build in the stage1, using dependencies, and exporting the top layer of the overlay as result of the build.

This will require deep study to tell.
