A common question is why need another orchestrator when there are many other popular options?
2+
3+
the answer for that is that while the popular container orchestrators are great they have a few limitations which Nebula avoids:
4+
5+
1. scale - even though this issue keep improving with all orchestrators Nebula approach allows for far greater scalability (alongside Mesos)
6+
2. multi region clusters - orchestrators tend to be latency sensitive, Nebula unique architecture makes it ideal to managing distributed apps (like CDN or IOT), while still maintaining agility
7+
3. managing clients appliances - this option is not covered by any of the current orchestrators as it's outside their use case scope
8+
4. config management - while puppet\chef\ansible are great for config management and orchestrators are great for scaling containers Nebula can also be thought of as a docker config management system
9+

attached below is a table comparision between Nebula and the popular options
