We love Docker where I work, but running it in production is a big challenge — there's no "just" using it. We build packages of Rails apps and dependencies quite happily. Sure, you have to make sure all dependencies are packaged too, but that's still easier than a full-on Docker roll-out.

Indeed, we actually use Docker to build packages. Blog post coming soon, maybe.

In a few months Cloud Foundry will natively support launching, placing, managing, wiring, routing, logging and servicing Dockerised application images.

In the meantime you can get a taste with Lattice[0].
