This has been discussed a couple times here in HN recently regrading the integration of Kubernetes into Docker EE.
Individuals associated with Docker assure me that Swarm will not be End of Lifed, but even if this blog post by Docker, the focus in on the Kubernetes integration rather than the future of Swarm. 18 mentions of "Kubernetes" compared to just 8 "Swarm".
- brudgers 8y agoKubernetes was designed to solve Google type infrastructure problems. Although it will run Windows containers, Kubernetes won't run on Windows desktops. It's not a problem Google has. Kubernetes primary use-case is containers for server clusters and data centers. Swarm will run on Windows because the primary problem Docker tries to solve is containers for developers. Swarm is easy to setup and run on laptop. It's a part of the Docker product. A part of the experience of developing with Docker is not having to fool with Kubernetes while developing. Docker's enterprise products are designed to fit in the larger data-center context. The laptop experience is a small part of the value proposition relative to compatibility with heterogeneous tooling and architectures.
