It's strange (or perhaps rather unfortunate) to me as an SRE at Spotify as well. Helios is in many ways similar to Kube, so it was our hope that eventually it would lead us to scheduling multiple service containers per physical machine. We certainly have the service discovery framework to support that model.

However given Spotify's business position our priority has yet to shift from providing engineers compute capacity as fast as possible to optimising our usage of said compute capacity. It's all now somewhat of a moot point as we move away from our own hardware into Google's cloud.
