Again it's not a judgement against the technology. What I'm getting at is the talking that fad technologies won the industry is false and too early to call like that; in the particular company you are working in docker and kube you may have to use. In industrial terms, they are far from required and are not used in the majority of deployments. Proprietary schedulers or other deployment machinery are running most workloads. Distant second by cluster size is Mesos, which has passed its fad phase. I am currently using Nomad which works on multiple platforms and that is a requirement for my particular setting. I don't currently use containers in production environments and only see negatives to introducing them into this particular setting. This is not general advice to use nomad, just a counterpoint to any particular fad tech being an industrial requirement.
