Abstract

In some examples, a system for container migration can include a processor to detect a remote direct memory access (RDMA) enabled network interface controller that supports an on-demand paging feature within the system and within the target device. The processor can also detect a container to be migrated to the target device, the container comprising one or more processes being executed by the system. Additionally, the processor can implement migration procedures on the system and detect, via a kernel component of an operating system, a process identifier of each of the one or more processes to be migrated, wherein the operating system is stored in memory of the system. Furthermore, the processor can modify the system to transmit page fault data for each of the one or more processes migrated to the target device.
