This doesn't directly answer your question, but you can use virtualenvs for pretty much any language, not just Python. At my previous employer, before containers were so hot right now, we built virtualenvs for deployment on all our production systems. Our build system's output was a virtualenv that contained all the dependencies needed to run the application, our CI system tested that virtualenv, and if it passed, it was deployed into production. Many of our tools were Python, but we also used this for C++ and Java successfully. virtualenv is a great tool and gives you many of the packaging benefits of containers (but not the runtime benefits, though you could achieve that with other tools).
