   A company is comparing the use of VMs and containers for deploying a new application. The application is composed of several independent services that need to be deployed and scaled separately. The team is concerned about the resource overhead of running multiple full operating systems. What is the primary advantage of using containers over VMs in this scenario?

   • BContainers are always more secure than VMs.
   • CContainers share the host operating system kernel, making them more lightweight and efficient than VMs.
   • DContainers provide stronger isolation between applications than VMs.
