Feature Spec

Our bring redis requires the user to use docker.

Maybe we should support some other pluggable mechanism that will allow the user to bring their own containerization tool

Notice the first con of @vfarcic on Klotho depending on docker here

Use Cases

Easy support for people that have Podman/LXC/rkt/CRI-O and others, considering we mainly focus early adopters, while wing is still in alpha, I think it might be relevant

Implementation Notes

From https://github.com/winglang/wing/blob/main/libs/wingsdk/src/target-sim/redis.inflight.ts, it seems that we are using docker for the following 4 actions:

1. pull_image --image <image>
2. start_service --port <port> --name <name>
3. get_port --name <name>
4. cleanup --image <image>
