NOTE: VMs and Containers can be both 32-bit and/or 64-bit.
Does my CPU support virtualization?::

LXD is building on top of LXC to provide a new, better user

+experience. Under the hood, LXD uses LXC through `liblxc` and its Go
binding to create and manage the containers. It's basically an

Proxmox Containers also aims at *system virtualization*, and thus uses
LXC as the basis of its own container offer. The Proxmox Container
-Toolkit is called 'pct', and is tightly coupled with {pve}. That means
+Toolkit is called `pct`, and is tightly coupled with {pve}. That means
that it is aware of the cluster setup, and it can use the same network
and storage resources as fully virtualized VMs. You can even use the
{pve} firewall, create and restore backups, or manage containers using
