Deploying service containers in an adapter device

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that upon execution cause an adapter device to:

• deploy a composer container in the adapter device coupled to a host device;
• track, by the composer container, computing resources in the adapter device;
• receive, by the composer container in the adapter device, a plurality of adapter service requests from the host device;
• and
• in response to the plurality of adapter service requests:
• allocate, by the composer container, respective subsets of the computing resources in the adapter device to corresponding service containers for the plurality of adapter service requests,
• initiate, by the composer container, execution of the corresponding service containers that are implemented using the respective subsets of the computing resources in the adapter device allocated to the corresponding service containers by the composer container, wherein each service container is to provide a particular adapter service to the host device, wherein the composer container comprises an isolated computing environment that is discrete from respective isolated computing environments of the service containers, and
• execute respective adapter services requested by the adapter service requests from the host device in the respective isolated computing environments of the service containers.
