on GitHub

Welcome to the v2.0.0-rc.5 release of containerd!
This is a pre-release of containerd

The first major release of containerd 2.x focuses on the continued stability of

Which file should I download?

• containerd-<VERSION>-<OS>-<ARCH>.tar.gz: ✅Recommended. Dynamically linked with glibc 2.31 (Ubuntu 20.04).
• containerd-static-<VERSION>-<OS>-<ARCH>.tar.gz: Statically linked. Expected to be used on non-glibc Linux distributions. Not position-independent.

In addition to containerd, typically you will have to install runc
and CNI plugins from their official sites too.

See also the Getting Started documentation.
