Since it's too late to edit, turns out I'm out of date about the current way Diego works. There's an auction mechanism but it's been made more centralised due to a thundering herd problem. It more closely resembles Mesos and others, insofar as it collects resource reports and selects candidates based on standard bin-packing techniques; cells can then reject placements.
