Docker

Docker is a type of virtualization. Zoneminder has a few different implementations by folks, and they are listed here for reference.

Note that Docker is not recommended for those new to GNU\Linux. It is intermediate, and requires a basic understanding of GNU\Linux for successful operation. Assuming you are comfortable with using various GNU\Linux Distributions, a good place to start might be a book on the subject. Using Docker by Adrian Mouat is one such option.
