I've heard comments from Docker PR that they will continue to utilize both platforms, but I wonder if they will continue to invest in Swarm in the future. Any proof of this?
https://docs.docker.com/docker-cloud/migration/
> Cluster and application management services in Docker Cloud are shutting down on May 21. You must migrate your applications from Docker Cloud to another platform and deregister your Swarms.
In fact, this has greatly simplified our development, testing, deployments, monitoring, and recovery.
If I need to scale then I add more cores to a machine with minimal downtime. No need for all this rolling upgrade stuff (at least for my applications)
Or are you simply moving away for the sake of simplicity/cost?
> But it’s equally important for us to note that Swarm orchestration is not going away. Swarm forms an integral cluster management component of the Docker EE platform; in addition, Swarm will operate side-by-side with Kubernetes in a Docker EE cluster, allowing customers to select, based on their needs, the most suitable orchestration tool at application deployment time.
