How does this compare to CoreOS?
2 comments

This could run on top of CoreOS (I haven't tried yet though).

If we look at a very high level sketch of what a dynamic cluster system look like (https://speakerdeck.com/jbeda/containers-at-scale?slide=5) I think that CoreOS fits in at the "Managed Base OS" level.

Kubernetes is a Cluster Scheduler and a "Node Container Manager" (called the kubelet in Kubernetes).

(This deck is pre-Kupernetes. The python agent that we released will be replaced with the kubelet at some point soon.)

CoreOS has its own cluster scheduler called Fleet that seems to cover a similar ground. I'd love for someone familiar with both to do a writeup.
This is exactly what I'm really curious about
