   Try LXC. Ubuntu also have some extension of that, which they call LXD.   
   (Confusingly, the commands for managing LXC are all one word beginning   
   with the “lxc-” prefix, while LXD is managed via a single command   
   called “lxc”.)   
      
   For something even lower-level, try systemd-nspawn.   
      
   I have made a lot of use of LXC myself. It comes with templates so you   
   can, for example, easily install an Ubuntu userland inside a container   
   under Debian, or even a 32-bit container on a 64-bit OS.
