Have you looked at LXD/LXC? I find it to be a great compromise between the high overhead of VMs and the complex abstractions around Docker.

Yes, it's still just more abstractions. If you look at the way people use ECS, allocating specific resource limits to each container, it's basically a micro EC2 node. And for me, the only reason I use containers is to make it easier to package and run applications immutably. If I can do that without "containerisms", all the better. It also seems like VMs would solve a good deal of multi-tenancy issues.
SystemD does that.
