### Network
Spearhead Cloud provides a complete software-defined-networking stack allowing for full IP stacks, easy management and high performance.
### Volumes
Spearhead Cloud provides volumes which can be used to store data that can be read or written by any of your instances (hardware virtual machines, infrastructure containers and/or Docker containers).
### Security
Spearhead Cloud leverages well known Zones technology to keep tenants from seeing each others data but also assures that everyone gets their share of the resources.
### Debugging and Visibility
Spearhead Cloud provides complete visibility for your systems and applications though dynamic tracing, complex monitoring and native docker logging.

The main way that this is different from Docker Inc's docker is that with Docker Inc's docker, if you restart the docker daemon all containers will be stopped and those with --restart=always will be started again.
