Can someone explain how this is different from Docker? As someone who hasn't used either, I'd really appreciate an explanation of the nuanced differences/how they relate.
This is an awesome example of the kinds of things Docker is making possible. It seems like these PaaS solutions are just sprouting up left and right now, and it's exciting! It wasn't so long ago that "deploying" meant dragging folders into an FTP window and hoping things worked just fine.
Anyone with hands on experience to compare Deis to something like salt cloud (from saltstack) ?<p>I know one is using chef and the other is using saltstack, but i'm talking configuration, ease of deployment and reliability.
"Deis is designed to work with any cloud provider, although only EC2 is currently supported."<p>Any idea when out of the box Azure support is coming?
So the perceived value of Flynn vs. Deis will be that it's:<p>1. implemented in Go vs. Python+Ruby which means no dependencies, easier install, etc.<p>2. Modular architecture: in addition to Docker will also use CoreOS and etcd.
