As someone who is contributing to this project, what we are focusing is making it easy to run and connect multiple containers and applications. We do this by:

1. Building in service discovery. This means that containers register automatically with DNS (and mesos tasks will register with consul in our next version)

2. Distributed scheduling. We use mesos to manage the running of containers and other processes. This means you can just use a an API call to launch a container, and that container will register itself in DNS.

3. Framework support. One of the coolest features of Mesos is the ability to launch containers that easily run things like Kafka, HDFS and Cassandra clusters without having to use tools like chef or ansible.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm really excited about this project!
