+title: LXD and live migration / Canoncial needs support for CRIU
+author: pcdummy

+[LXD](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd) is a container "hypervisor", its similiar to
+XEN, KVM, VirtualBox or VMWare if you use it Linux only.
+
+Lex-dee is a full stack os hypervisor while Docker's main focus lays on app containerisation.
+<!--more-->
+Some of the main features of LXD are:
+
+  - Live Migrations (Move one container to another Host while its running)
+  - Secure by design
+  - Scalable
+  - Intuitive to use
+  - Its image based
+  - Supports limits (Max memory, CPU, disk IO)
+  - Support for multiple network interfaces, by macvlan or bridges
+  - Support for bind mounts and mounting block devices into containers
+  - On ZFS and BTRFS containers take only a little space
+
+Nice features, not? But there's a catch, Canoncial isn't supporting the live Migration work anymore:

+
+Please tell Canoncial that you need LXD live migrations if your a paying customer of canoncial or if you get one!
+
+P.s.: XEN, KVM, Virtualbox and VMWare is ofc more secure than containers, we should compare it to Docker, OpenVZ, Virtuozzo and FreeBSD jail.
