Podman

A daemonless, open-source container engine from Red Hat with a Docker-compatible CLI that supports rootless containers and pods.

Definition

Podman runs containers as child processes without a privileged daemon, improving security. It can group containers into pods and generate Kubernetes YAML or systemd/Quadlet units.

Example

podman run --rm -it registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9/ubi bash

Exam tip

Podman is daemonless and rootless by design; alias docker=podman works for most commands.
