How do provisioning systems compare to Docker? Right now I have a development environment that consists of salt stack provisioning Vagrant. Spinning up a production server just means running salt on the host (Rackspace, DO, whatever.)

Is there any use for Docker in this case?

I think there's someone already working on this use case, check out: https://github.com/makinacorpus/salt/blob/develop/salt/state...
very interested to look at it - I'm trying to figure out between ansible and salt. Do you have your salt scripts on github somewhere ?
