CloudLinux vs CoreOS: What are the differences?

Developers describe CloudLinux as "The super-platform for stability & efficiency in shared hosting". CloudLinux OS is designed for shared hosting providers. It isolates each customer into a separate “Lightweight Virtualized Environment” (LVE), which partitions, allocates, and limits server resources, like memory, CPU. On the other hand, CoreOS is detailed as "Linux for Massive Server Deployments". CoreOS is designed for security, consistency, and reliability. Instead of installing packages via yum or apt, CoreOS uses Linux containers to manage your services at a higher level of abstraction. A single service's code and all dependencies are packaged within a container that can be run on one or many CoreOS machines.

CloudLinux and CoreOS can be categorized as "Operating Systems" tools.
