This article should really be about Docker Swarm not being ready for production. It's much newer technology than Docker and is predictably brittle. The only points made against Docker proper are rather laughable. You shouldn't be remotely administering Docker clusters from the CLI (use a proper cluster tool like Kubernetes), and copying entire credentials files from machine to machine is extremely unlikely/esoteric. Docker, with Kubernetes or ECS, is totally suitable for production at this point. Lots and lots of companies are successfully running production workloads using it.

> You shouldn't be remotely administering Docker clusters from the CLI (use a proper cluster tool like Kubernetes) Docker Swarm is advertised as stable, production ready cluster management solution. Then, if you actually try to use it, it is very NOT. Kubernetes is great, but it feels like adding another layer to the system, and it is not always a good thing (especially if you are on AWS and have to work with _their_ infrastructure management too).
