OpenContrail can be used as an overlay network for docker: the overlay is implemented as a kernel module and comes very close to the theoretical maximum iperf performance on a server with 2x10G links. This script https://github.com/pedro-r-marques/opencontrail-netns/blob/m... can be used to associate any docker container created with "--net=none" with an overlay network. Better yet you get all the semantics of the OpenStack neutron API: floating-ip, dhcp options, source-nat, LBaaS. The kernel module also collects flow records of all the traffic and there is a web-ui that can display the analytics of all the traffic flows in your network.
