Abstract
Examples may include techniques to run one or more containers on a virtual machine (VM). Examples include cloning a first VM to result in a second VM. The cloned first VM may run at least a set of containers capable of separately executing one or more applications. In some examples, some cloned containers are stopped at either the first or second VMs to allow for at least some resources provisioned to support the first or second VMs to be reused or recycled at a hosting node. In other examples, the second VM is migrated from the hosting node to a destination hosting node to further enable resources to be reused or recycled at the hosting node.
