Think about using containers if any of the below apply:

- You have heard or said the words "Hmm, it worked on my machine"

- You run or want to run multiple applications on the same host

- You care about software supply chain

- You think serverless patterns may apply to your workloads

- Scheduling applications on to your infrastructure is manual

I currently use VirtualBox + SaltStack to solve this problem, which has worked well and has significantly less overhead than going full Docker / K8s
