How these two compare? As far as I understand, runC is a runtime environment for containers. That means that this component provides the necessary environment to run containers. What is the role of the containerd here then? If it does the rest (networking, volume management, etc) then what is the role of the Docker Engine? And what about containerd-shim? Basically, I'm trying to understand what each of these components do.
