If "Docker == containers" continues to hold true in many people's minds, then it's possible that Docker Swarm could feel like the "vanilla" orchestration platform. Of course those of us familiar with the platforms know better, but that mindset could persist, especially with pseudo-technical decision-makers.

'docker == containers' is true in that people often use the terms interchangeably. I've heard many people say 'you should get into Docker' and then talk about Kubernetes.

Could you elaborate what alternatives to docker are worth checking out? I'm unfamiliar with containers and out of my head I can't name anything besides docker.

There's CRI-O. v1.0 was announced yesterday - https://medium.com/cri-o/cri-o-1-0-is-here-d06b97b92a98

The lesson of Linux is that fragmentation is bad. This is a chance to fight fragmentation.

rkt is likely going to be replacing Docker for the default engine in Kubernetes and/or OpenShift (I vaguely recall hearing that it was coming, but can't find a source to cite): https://coreos.com/rkt/

(edit: or maybe I'm thinking of CRI-O)
