Hi author here, thanks, glad you liked it! Flockport provides ready to deploy containers of popular apps based on LXC. We like the simplicity of LXC containers and find it easier to use. The comments are spot on, most networking gurus appear to be strictly against extending layer 2 as we note in the post but we wanted to put the options out there. You definitely need to address latency and mtu issues across remote hosts that will crop up, but with standards like VXLAN based on extending layer 2 perhaps we will soon start seeing interesting workarounds.
