Runtime Configuration

Definition

A configuration for a container that is already started

Explanation

This configuration represents a container that is already running somewhere, be it on the same machine as Cargo or not, that might have been started by Cargo or not. Cargo accesses that container using a remote access protocol and the container is considered as a black box.

This configuration is typically used in order to remotely deploy applications.
