Re: [atomic-devel] systemd-docker

This thread was linked from a LWN article; I hadn't
seen it before, but it's quite good:

Here's my personal thoughts on this:

- Systemd should expose a workable API for container systems
  not included in the systemd codebase to operate effectively.  The
  onus is on us as part of Project Atomic to help ensure that.

- Management of individual containers is important, but what
  makes the container story significantly more compelling
  is clustering - going beyond "containers as lightweight virtualization"
  to a model where applications are distributed redundant
  micro-services.  Given that, what matters most is a good
  Kubernetes experience.
