    I’ve been using micromamba/mamba and not had solving issues like I did with conda. Im glad conda integrated libmamba.

    Question: why were docker containers deemed security risks?

      If Windows, it requires a VM and currently infosec is not keen on virtualization in the hands of users.

        I’m no expert, but isn’t running in a VM strictly better than running on raw metal from a security perspective? It’s generally more locked down, and breaking out of the virtualization layer requires a separate security breach from gaining access to the running container.

      Yes, mamba is a huge improvement. Regarding docker I can’t really tell you as I’m not an infrastructure guy.
