OCI Runtime Specification

The OCI Runtime Specification is a technical standard that defines how to run containerized applications. Containers are lightweight, portable environments that package software and its dependencies, allowing it to run consistently across different systems. This specification outlines the requirements for creating, managing, and running these containers, including details about file structures, system resources, and security settings. Essentially, it ensures that developers and systems can reliably work with containers, promoting compatibility and efficiency in deploying software across various platforms and environments.
