Misterio: Ansible and Saltstack killer in docker
Misterio is a Docker-compose based Ansible/SaltStack minimalistic alternative.
It shines when you have share-nothing state-less services deployed on a pool of fixed worker nodes.
Why
I need to show Ansible and Saltstack configuration manager are nice tools but in a K8s world, the same result can be achieved in a much simpler way. It was to teach the container way to some co-worker.
Without effort, I end up with a tool I am using on my home machines, which include a bunch of very different architecture (Ubuntu Boxes, ARMs RPi2, Windooze). So I think it would be nice show Misterio to the world…and yes there is a bit of magic, called containers.
