Similarly docker-compose is great for our development boxes, but nowhere near useful for production.
And it doesn&amp;#x27;t help Docker&amp;#x27;s enterprise offerings still steer you towards using docker-compose and the likes.</text><parent_chain><item><author>huslage</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m admittedly biased, but have you checked out Docker Cloud? &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cloud.docker.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cloud.docker.com&lt;/a&gt;</text></item><item><author>jordanthoms</author><text>Switching from ECS to GKE (Google Container Engine) currently.

What IS Docker Cloud? Is it like Swarm? Does it use Swarm? What kinds of customers is Docker Cloud especially good at helping? All these mysteries and more, resolved never.</text><parent_chain><item><author>huslage</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m admittedly biased, but have you checked out Docker Cloud? &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cloud.docker.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cloud.docker.com&lt;/a&gt;</text></item><item><author>jordanthoms</author><text>Switching from ECS to GKE (Google Container Engine) currently.
