Docker vs containerd: which is better for production runtimes?

The question is about Docker .

Answer:

Сontainerd is better suited to production runtimes. It provides minimal, robust container management without Docker’s CLI tools and extra features. Large systems use containerd for reliability and direct orchestration, as it represents the underlying standard. Docker still uses containerd under the hood but adds extras that are not always needed in production.
