CNI isn’t some silly Kubernetes abstraction to scratch an itch. CNI is a specification and a set of libraries for container networking. Calico is built on top of CNI, Nomad requires CNI for multi-machine networking, Mesos uses CNI for network isolation, Firecracker uses CNI extensively. Docker does not use CNI directly but their libnetwork code depends on exactly the same principles as CNI. Life everywhere is simpler thanks to CNI. Do a thought experiment. If you think it’s that easy, why don’t you try marrying systemd with Docker overlay networks and see how far you get?
