The Open Container Initiative (OCI) has published version 1.3 of the OCI Runtime specification. The specification defines the behavior and configuration interface for launching and managing isolated containers, unifying interactions with low-level runtime components such as runc, crun, youki, gVisor, and Kata Containers. OCI Runtime enables interchangeability between similar components in higher-level toolchains such as containerd and CRI-O.
The release of OCI Runtime 1.3 is notable for adding support for the FreeBSD platform to the specification, which utilizes the FreeBSD Jails mechanism for container isolation. runj can be used as a low-level runtime in FreeBSD. Official support in OCI Runtime highlights FreeBSD's ability to be used with OCI-compatible high-level containerization and orchestration tools, making the FreeBSD platform more attractive for use in cloud infrastructures and enterprise systems that adhere to industry standards.
