I used Dokku (and Dokku-alt) on Digital Ocean with the goal of making deploying easier. I ended up getting rid of it (and Docker) because for a small scale system, Docker wasn't worth the overhead (vs capistrano and ruby, or heroku's git push). On the other hand, at my last job -- where scale was much larger, we implemented a Docker orchestration system to handle our SOA using Consul as a registration system.
