This is a pretty balanced article. Absent is Nomad, which claims the world but when you dig into the code pretty large advertised chunks are simply not there yet. Nomad seems like a much more straightforward implementation of the Borg paper, and one day may be interesting once they write the rest of it. A nice Kubernetes feature that is similar to what you can do with fleet is the “Daemon Set” which lets you run certain things on every node. Some cool Mesos features that are pretty new and haven’t been talked about much yet:

* persistent volumes: let frameworks have directories on agent machines returned to them after an availability event happens, which is nice for replicated stateful services

* maintenance primitives: schedule machines to go offline at certain times, and ask frameworks if it’s safe to take nodes offline. This will soon start being used for stateful services so that they can vote on when it’s safe to take out a replica, and to trigger proactive rereplication when maintenance is desired.

* oversubscription: if you have an agent that has given away all of its resources, but the agent detects that there is still some unutilized CPU, it can start “revokable tasks” to fill up the slack up until it starts interfering with existing workloads.
