Runs Anywhere

Running on Linux (CentOS, RHEL, and Ubuntu) and Windows Server operating systems, Mirantis Container Runtime helps Mirantis Kubernetes Engine worker nodes operate efficiently on any substrate, and host any kind of containerized workload under Kubernetes and/or Swarm orchestration. Operators can use familiar tools and consistent automation, everywhere: portable DevOps.

Certified Plugins

Plugin support lets Mirantis Kubernetes Engine exploit best-in-class Kubernetes container networking fabrics like Calico, Kubernetes ingress solutions like Istio, and GPU-equipped and other specialized hardware. Component and node capabilities discovered by plugin are labeled in Mirantis Kubernetes Engine, appropriately tagged, and made immediately available to application deployments for scheduling.

Intrinsic Security

“Secure by default,” Mirantis Container Runtime deploys with restricted host access, end-to-end encryption, secure mutual TLS authentication and cryptographic node identity. Security features are supported by Mirantis Kubernetes Engine’s FIPS 140-2-compliant cryptographic module, validated by the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST), fulfilling key requirements of the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA).

Auditable and Trusted

Integration with Mirantis Secure Registry (formerly Docker Trusted Registry), Mirantis Kubernetes Engine OSCAL automated-audit functionality, plus the ability to run vulnerability scans on Docker containers help make Mirantis Container Cloud an efficient solution for government and commercial customers with stringent data security, privacy, and computational integrity requirements.

Preferred for Kubernetes (and Swarm)

Mirantis Container Runtime is validated to work with Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface (CRI) and is the most-popular container runtime for Kubernetes, and also for Swarm. Mirantis Kubernetes Engine can orchestrate nodes in Kubernetes, Swarm, or ‘mixed’ configurations, so it exploits Mirantis Container Cloud’s flexibility in letting you configure clusters to match workload capacity and placement requirements today, then change them quickly to adapt to new requirements.

Enforce Signed Images

Mirantis Container Runtime lets you validate container provenance by requiring proper digital signing of images before they can be deployed. Users are prevented from using container images or composing containers on base layers from unknown sources.
