Kubernetes supports pluggable schedulers: http://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/multiple-schedulers/ http://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/multiple-schedulers/ It also supports pluggable "controllers," which manage the lifecycle of containers. (So a Kubernetes scheduler + controller is roughly equivalent to a Mesos framework scheduler; see this doc for more details: https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/mesos-style.md https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contribu... ) Another recent development in this area is CoreOS operators, which leverages pluggable controllers + Third Party Resources and was previously discussed on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12868594 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12868594 [Disclosure: I work on Kubernetes at Google.]
