Cross-ISA Container Migration

Containers are a convenient way of encapsulating and isolating applications. They incur less overhead than virtual machines and provide more flexibility and versatility to improve server utilization. Many new cloud applications are being written in the microservices style to take advantage of container technologies. Each component of the application can be encapsulated in a separate container, which enables the use of other features such as auto-scaling. However, legacy applications can also benefit from containers which provide more efficient development and deployment models.
