Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes detecting, by a bridge container running inside a container scope, connection information about a first service instance running to provide a respective first service outside the container scope. A first virtual container is initialized inside the container scope. The first virtual container is connected to the first service instance, utilizing the connection information about the first service instance, to virtualize the first service instance inside the container scope. It is detected that that a first source container inside the container scope requires the first service of the first service instance. The first source container is connected to the first virtual container to enable the first source container to access the first service instance through the first virtual container.
