podman

Podman is a daemonless, open source, Linux native tool designed to make it easy to find, run, build, share and deploy applications using Open Containers Initiative (OCI) Containers and Container Images. It is compatible with docker cli, so you can alias podman to docker.

To install Podman on Oracle Linux 8, run

dnf install podman

Once installed, you can search for a container image with the command

podman search nginx

To run nginx container, use the command

podman run -d -p 80:80 docker.io/library/nginx

Example

[root@nginx-proxy ~]# podman run -d -p 80:80 docker.io/library/nginx
