Many distributions also dropped the lxc tools from the distribution
in favour of docker.
* OEM Recovery/Restore
Recovery/Restore in the world of images has been moved from the OS
layer into higher layers. For example in Cloud and Public Cloud
environments disk and image recovery as well as backup strategies
are part of cloud services. Pure OS recovery and snapshots for consumer
machines are developed as build in solutions of the distribution.
SUSE as an example provides this via ReaR (Relax-and-Recover) and
snapshot based filesystems (btrfs+snapper). Therefore the recovery
solution offered in the legacy KIWI version will not be continued.
