And an imitation of it at worst. Personally, when I looked at kubernetes, mesos, etc and saw the xml hell that i'd be living in and said "no way". If i have to run something as complex as those to have docker then it's not worth it to me. When I look at the new docker swarm stuff. For the first time I think that docker is a viable thing (assuming it all works). because I'm not adding additional complexity to get my docker simplicity.
