Isolating containers on a host

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive a request to deploy, on a device, a container associated with a tenant,
• the request including information identifying one or more parameters related to the container;
• configure, for the container, an Internet protocol (IP) address that includes information identifying the tenant with which the container is associated,
• the IP address to permit the container to be reachable from outside of the device;
• configure an interface for the container to isolate the container from another container deployed on the device,
• the other container being associated with another tenant,
• the tenant and the other tenant being different;
• configure a bridge, associated with the interface, on the device to connect the container and the other container,
• the bridge being used to prevent the container from reading or sniffing one or more packets associated with the other container;
• configure a set of rules related to traffic associated with the container,
• the set of rules to permit the container to exchange traffic with a set of containers associated with the tenant, and
• the set of rules to prevent the container from exchanging traffic with another set of containers associated with the other tenant;
• and
• perform an action related to the container after deploying the container with the IP address, the interface, the bridge, and the set of rules.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a device, a request to deploy, on the device, a container associated with a tenant,
• the request including information identifying one or more parameters related to the container;
• configuring, by the device and for the container, an Internet protocol (IP) address that includes information identifying the tenant with which the container is associated,
• the IP address to permit the container to be reachable from outside of the device;
• configuring, by the device, an interface for the container to isolate the container from another container deployed on the device,
• the other container being associated with another tenant,
• the tenant and the other tenant being different;
• configuring, by the device, a bridge, associated with the interface, on the device to connect the container and the other container,
• the bridge being used to prevent the container from reading or sniffing one or more packets associated with the other container;
• configuring, by the device, a set of rules related to traffic associated with the container,
• the set of rules to permit the container to exchange traffic with a set of containers associated with the tenant, and
• the set of rules to prevent the container from exchanging traffic with another set of containers associated with the other tenant;
• and
• performing, by the device, an action related to the container after deploying the container with the IP address, the interface, the bridge, and the set of rules.
