I have recently come to the same conclusion. Right now I am trying to figure out the best way to do service discovery and load balancing. It would be really nice if I could just specify some swarm constraints and create a load balancer serving the containers that match those constraints. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like an easy solution exists yet, but once it does I'm all in with Swarm.

Or you could just kubernetes, which does them (mostly) right, right out of the box… The way it works is that services are exposed as hostnames and environment variables; connexions to those hosts on certain ports are load-balanced to the actual backing services, transparently. It's really nice, and very Twelve-Factor-like.
