Container technologies are gaining quite a momentum and changing the way how application are traditionally deployed in the public and private clouds. Gaining interest in micro services based architecture also fostering adaption of container technologies. Like how cloud orchestration platforms like CloudStack enabled provisioning of VM's and adjunct services, container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes, docker swarm, mesos are emerging to enable orchestration of containers. Container orchestration platforms typically can be run any where and can be used to provision containers. A popular choice of running containers has been running them on the IAAS provisioned VM's. AWS and GCE provides native functionality to launch containers abstracting underlying consumption of VM's. There are couple efforts to provision a container orchestration platforms on top of CloudStack, but they are not out of the box solution. Given the momentum of container technologies, miro-services etc it make sense to provide a native functionality in CloudStack which is available out-of-the-box for users.
