I think it's a good direction to provide standardized services for running multiple containers as a cloud application. The current state is: get some "legacy" (old school unix) server, pack it into a container (with some ugly shell hackery, albeit in a Dockerfile or Kubernetes manifest), provide configuration through environment variables or rewrite the old-school .conf files through more shell hackery. All state management of those servers is done through more shell hackery (select statements or nc for databases; nc or wget for http services; touch a random dotfile after a certain state is reached).
