# Singularity is Now Apptainer: Containers for HPC With Full Software Supply Chain Security

## Apptainer: Verifiable “Buckets” with Just Enough Bits

For decades, there has been no sharing of technology between enterprise and HPC, but containers change that completely! High Performance Computing use cases can now leverage containers directly on traditional HPC resources in a way that emphasizes the benefits of containers with the performance characteristics necessary for HPC.

Apptainer is designed to securely execute applications with bare-metal performance while being portable and 100% reproducible. An Apptainer container packages up whatever you need into a single, verifiable file. From small laboratory clusters all the way to massively-scalable HPC clusters, Apptainer can handle it.
