Am I the only one still using Docker Compose?

No, But I'm looking at what to do to streamline deploys and provisioning across 10's of vms, each running docker-compose.

For one or two services on a machine, it's pretty good. Past that... not so much.

I run docker-compose inside supervisord. Surprisingly it works great, they play well together and I highly recommend it for managing multiple compose projects per machine.

    [program:some-docker-project]
    command=docker-compose up
    directory=/opt/some-docker-project
    ...

    [program:some-other-docker-project]
    command=docker-compose up
    directory=/opt/some-other-docker-project
    ...
This style of setup has served many millions of visitors across dozens of projects in production at our company over the last ~3 years. It's like a poor-mans kubernetes, it handles autorestarting failed projects, we handle ingress with cloudflare argo tunnels in docker, and deployments are easy (just git pull && supervisorctl restart all).

I'm more at the level of one Docker-compose per VM, and I've got it loading with some os too. Service or similar. But there are at least a few problems with that.

1) Want Ci where push to github builds the image and deploys.

2) Binpacking time. We're at the point where that's an issue

3) Host machines -- There's too much on them and we need to standardize and streamline.
