Abstract
One example method includes transmitting a request for a container image to a registry, receiving metadata associated with the container image, wherein the metadata allows a controller to mount an empty filesystem on a host machine, starting a container from the container image without receiving all files associated with the container image, receiving files, from a container server, needed by the container based on an access sequence associated with the container. This allows a container to be started without downloading the entire container image and also conversed bandwidth by providing the files as needed based on the manner in which the container accesses files during execution.
