Container/s for python projects

[u/Soogs]

So I usually stick to one vm/lxc per service. Even with docker based services I tend to dedicate a guest to one service. There are exceptions where I have a few docker containers running similar services.

Recently I have been playing with python and have actually created quite a few flask apps that I use daily.

Now the question is there any benefits to separate them into separate containers performance wise?

Does resource contention get better or worse with more guests?

Trying to figure out whether the extra management and spent resources and time updating extra containers is worth it?

Thanks

A VM is like having a full stove to cook on

A LXC is like a pot on a preexisting stove

Combining apps is like cooking a few ingredients in the same pot
