5. • Multiple Docker containers can be orchestrated into multiple
vms
• Your choice of IaaS: AWS, OpenStack, VSphere, VCHS,
CloudStack or GCE
• Containers self-healing
• Container dependencies
• Virtual machines self-healing
• Host volumes can be bound to Docker containers
• Resize data disks on-the-fly without losing data
• Route container’s output to a remote syslog
Awesomeness!
