Unless I am missing something it seems to have zero benefits. > Docker based deployment > ----------------------- > > Key: APEXCORE-796 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-796 > Project: Apache Apex Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Thomas Weise > Priority: Major > Labels: roadmap > > Apex should support deployment using Docker as alternative to application > packages. Docker images provide a simple and standard way to package > dependencies and solve isolation from the host environment. This will be > particularly helpful when applications depend on native, non-JVM packages > like Python and R, that otherwise need to be installed separately. Docker > support will also be a step towards supporting other cluster managers like > Kubernetes, Mesos and Swarm. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
