Container
Simply put, HyperContainer is a virtualized container technology that allows you to run Docker images on hypervisor (KVM, Xen, etc.):
HyperContainer = Hypervisor + Docker Image
By combining the best from both virtualization and container world, HyperContainer is able to bring the hardware-enforced isolation as VM, and the speed of container.

ISOLATION | Strong | Weak | Strong |
PORTABLE | No | Yes | Yes |
BOOT | Slow (seconds) | Fast (sub-seconds) | Fast (sub-seconds) |
IMMUTABLE | No | Yes | Yes |
IMAGE SIZE | Big GBs | Small MBs | Small MBs |
EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE ROI | - | No | Great |
TOOLCHAIN MATURITY | Great | Brand new | Great |
