For more details about how to build Nydus container image, please refer to nydusify conversion tool and acceld. Architecture Architecture Based on FUSE

We recommend using the Dragonfly P2P data distribution system to further improve the runtime performance of Nydus images. Use crictl to debug starting container via Kubernetes CRI. Dry run steps of using crictl can be found in documents. Setup with nydus-snapshotter image Nydus supports lazy pulling feature since pulling image is one of the time-consuming steps in the container lifecycle. Lazy pulling here means a container can run even the image is partially available and necessary chunks of the image are fetched on-demand. Apart from that, Nydus also supports (e)Stargz and OCI (by using zran) lazy pulling directly WITHOUT any explicit conversion. We can also use the nydus-snapshotter container image when we want to put Nydus stuffs inside a container. See the nydus-snapshotter example for how to setup and use it.
