There are core ContainerShip features that function similarly to how Kubernetes does. Both provide a cluster scheduler that places and manages containers across a group of servers. They ensures jobs are restarted if they fail, let you scale the number of containers for an app up or down, and make it so you can stop thinking about individual servers.

That feature set alone is awesome but it won't take you to the finish line, you'll end up needing to tack other projects on to get a fully working system when you use something like Kubernetes (and some other popular choices).

With ContainerShip we wanted to make it easy for people to get up and running without having to learn and glue together many different projects. We are trying to provide everything needed to run and scale your infrastructure anywhere in one package.

ContainerShip Cloud makes it easy to stand clusters up on various providers, backup your data, and easily migrate somewhere else.
