I'd respectfully like to submit my project, Convox, into the discussion of not reinventing a PaaS:

Convox is another open source PaaS, but we're building it entirely on top of AWS services like CloudFormation, ECS, ASG, etc.
This means it's only suitable for teams that have 100% bought into AWS. If that's you, we make all the hard parts of operating a distributed deployment system Amazon's problem.
There's another project in this same space, Empire: https://github.com/remind101/empire https://github.com/remind101/empire
If 100% AWS is not you, Docker Datacenter / Swarm, CoreOS, Deis, CloudFoundry, etc. are doing incredible work.
It's amazing how these sophisticated tools are available to all of us.
- dekz 11y agoI think Empire or Convox will be the right tool for us. Flynn and Deis etc all seem to be writing their own schedulers and routing layer, where Convox and Empire just reuse AWS components. This to me is a huge plus, since those problems are already solved and rock solid. But as a developer, I just want to push a docker image some where and scale it up later.
