cgroups
Control groups - a Linux kernel feature for limiting, accounting, and isolating resource usage of process collections.
cgroups enable fine-grained control over CPU, memory, I/O, and network resources for processes. They are fundamental to container technologies like Docker and Kubernetes. cgroups v2 provides a unified hierarchy and improved resource management.
