KVMPods: Run Docker Compose Apps with True VM Isolation

Ever tried running Docker Compose in production and hit limitations? KVMPods gives you your own KVM virtual machine where you can run multiple Docker Compose apps with true isolation from other users.

The Problem with Traditional Container Platforms

Most container platforms share resources between containers and users, which can lead to:

  • Noisy neighbor problems
  • Kernel feature limitations
  • Resource contention
  • Security concerns
  • Restricted Docker Compose features
# On traditional platforms
# You often can't use certain features
# Or face resource conflicts with other users 😕
services:
  app:
    image: ghost:latest
    # Will this actually work as expected?
    # Are you sharing resources with others?

Enter KVMPods

With KVMPods, you get:

  1. Your own KVM virtual machine (server)
  2. Run multiple Docker Compose apps within your server
  3. Complete isolation from other users

Just paste your Docker Compose file and deploy:

# Your docker-compose.yml
# Works exactly as expected! 🎉
services:
  wordpress:
    image: wordpress:latest
    restart: always
    environment:
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: wordpress
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    volumes:
      - wordpress_data:/var/www/html

  db:
    image: mariadb:latest
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
      MYSQL_USER: wordpress
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: wordpress
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: somewordpress
    volumes:
      - db_data:/var/lib/mysql
