Plumbing the Cloud for Containers
summary
Docker for AWS and Docker for Azure use custom AMIs and CloudFormation to make swarm bootstraps trivial but upgrades hard; manager containers subscribe to AWS events to drain and replace nodes while preserving manager quorum. A declarative toolkit called infrakit provides plugins (instance, flavor, group) for self‑healing and rolling updates; demo uses a file plugin to perform a 5 to 10 rolling update and to auto‑recreate deleted instances, proving the approach works though it’s AWS‑centric and finicky.
