Bootable Containers in Action: Hands on with Deploying AI Workloads
summary
Bootable containers package a full OS plus kernel and are already donated to the CNCF; the demo builds a CentOS Stream 9 bootable image (~6–8 GB) with a quantized Mistral code‑generation model, uses Podman Desktop and the bootc builder to produce an ISO, runs the app as a systemd unit via quadlet, shows running containers with podman ps, and performs a bootc upgrade that stages a new image for next‑boot — the workflow completes and the deployed system works.
