Podman is a daemonless container management tool that allows users to run, build, and manage OCI-compliant containers. It provides a secure and rootless alternative to Docker while maintaining compatibility with Docker CLI commands.

Features of Podman:

• Daemonless architecture for improved security and flexibility.
• Rootless mode, allowing non-root users to run containers securely.
• Full compatibility with Docker CLI and container images.
• Supports pods, similar to Kubernetes, for managing multiple containers.
• Integration with systemd for managing containers as system services.

To check the installed Podman version, use:

podman --version
