Cgroups
A resource control mechanism provided by the Linux kernel, used to limit, account for, and isolate CPU, memory, disk I/O, and other resources for groups of processes. It is the core technical foundation for resource quotas in containers, and exists in two major versions: v1 and v2.

Cgroups can precisely limit and account for resources such as CPU, memory, and disk I/O for a group of processes.
The core principle of Docker container isolation is to use Linux Namespaces to isolate process views and Cgroups to limit resource quotas such as CPU, memory, and disk.
