OCI
In plain terms
Open standards for container images and runtimes.
Going deeper
The Open Container Initiative defines vendor-neutral specs for container image format and runtime, ensuring interoperability across tools. It standardizes containers.
Under the hood
OCI image and runtime specs let images run across Docker, Podman, containerd, etc.
Examples
OCI images, container interoperability, image format standard, runtimes.
Think of it like...
Like a universal shipping-container standard so any crane and ship can handle them.
