Abstract
In an approach to detection of co-location of container services, a method may include receiving, by a first program in a first cloud container on a first host, a bit string over a side channel within a trial period of time. The method may also include determining whether a key corresponding to the bit string matches a pre-determined key corresponding to a second program in a second cloud container. The method may further include determining whether the second cloud container is located on the first host based, at least in part, on whether the key corresponding to the bit string matches the pre-determined key. The side channel may include a first resource on the first host that is accessible by cloud containers located on the first host and the bit string is received by monitoring the first resource for activity indicative of bit values.
