onclick="document.getElementById('player').play();return false;"><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">[lɛks'di:]</span></code>🔈</a>) is a modern, secure and powerful system container and virtual machine manager.</p> <p><audio id="player"><source src="_static/lxd.mp3" type="audio/mpeg"></audio></p> <p>It provides a unified experience for running and managing full Linux systems inside containers or virtual machines. LXD supports images for a large number of Linux distributions (official Ubuntu images and images provided by the community) and is built around a very powerful, yet pretty simple, REST API. LXD scales from one instance on a single machine to a cluster in a full data center rack, making it suitable for running workloads both for development and in production.</p> <p>LXD allows you to easily set up a system that feels like a small private cloud. You can run any type of workload in an efficient way while keeping your resources optimized.</p> <p>You should consider using LXD if you want to containerize different environments or run virtual machines, or in general run and manage your infrastructure in a cost-effective way.</p> <hr class="docutils" /> <p class="hclass2 rubric">In this documentation</p> <div class="sd-container-fluid
