stargz-snapshotter

Fast container image distribution plugin with lazy pulling (program)

Description

Pulling image is one of the time-consuming steps in the container lifecycle. Stargz Snapshotter is an implementation of snapshotter which aims to solve this problem by lazy pulling. Lazy pulling here means a container can run without waiting for the pull completion of the image and necessary chunks of the image are fetched on-demand.

eStargz is a lazily-pullable image format proposed by this project. This is compatible to OCI images so this can be pushed to standard container registries (e.g. ghcr.io) as well as this is still runnable even on eStargz-agnostic runtimes including Docker. eStargz format is based on stargz image format by CRFS but comes with additional features like runtime optimization and content verification.

This package contains the ctr-remote command.
