a container is a raised bed. it doesnt matter if it is square or round. it doesnt matter if it is 18" or 24" or 36" deep.
the only difference is size the depth to the kind of plant, dont put a big tree in an 18"
ALL containers need an irrigation system because of course there are holes for drainage and they will dry out faster than regular beds. and that doesnt differ if it is on concrete or not. Ingrid

Obvious. But, once again, you didn't offer advise, especially the important differences between container gardening and what most people consider raised beds. Raised beds on concrete which mimic container gardening are quite different from conventional raised beds.
Hell, conventional gardening is really "container gardening" - it is just that the container is mighty damned big. :)
And, once again, your container gardening is very impressive. Especially the figs.
Quit arguing by picking at minutia and offer advise.
