Poor mans abstraction. Docker swarm makes a cheap node pool from random hardware. Compose makes all your apps and config live in git.

You don't _need_ docker, but if you are already set up for it then it's a boon. Adding an app for me to be very available across a fleet of hardware with ceph backed storage is a one-liner.

Don't be ridiculous, IRC is not a protocol that remembers, you need High Availability otherwise if the IRC client goes down you've lost important messages from bloodninja that you can never find again.

And I want my irs client to be around and keep my history. If it is a tool I use every day then it lives in my git repo.
