I have a follow-up question after reading your reply. If containers can use host OS resources, why bother include things such as vi/bash/etc. which are usually universal available in all Linux distros? And as containers rely on host OS, host can definitely see through it (as we can use ps to investigate the processes in the containers). Thanks!

| Jul 21, 2020 at 6:34 | comment | added | bluelights | Sorry but you are saying 'wrong' in entirely different context. Yes, It runs on windows host but the question is about wether it has a OS running inside the container or not and not outside of the container. Can you please check the link provided in the answer above? It might help you. The link will redirect you to another answer I posted. I just provided the link instead of pasting the answer here to avoid duplication. | |
