Surprised that this item hit the front page and not the announcement on open sourcing ACS, Adding Kubernetes: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/azure-container-servi...

Very cool to see this preview make Hacker News, so also FYI, we've got Visual Studio Tooling (also in Preview) for Docker if anyone is interested.

This is very timely news. I'm involved in a fairly large project to migrate some enterprise infrastructure onto Azure. We've hit a road block with ACS and their newly announced ACS-Engine addresses all of that [0].

Interesting to see this announced / posted here around the same time as Hyper.sh [0], i'm curious as to what the pricing will be!

There is no additional charge aver and above the normal Azure compute charges (I'm the PM for this work in Azure)
