This project was created when there were no open-source container orchestration frameworks. Since the advent of Kubernetes and other tools, we've stopped adding new features to helios and are now switching to other tools like Kubernetes. This project will no longer have new features or accept PRs for new features. We will continue to accept bug fixes, however. Helios is a Docker orchestration platform for deploying and managing containers across an entire fleet of servers. Helios provides a HTTP API as well as a command-line client to interact with servers running your containers. It also keeps a history of events in your cluster including information such as deploys, restarts, and version changes.
Features
- The binary release of Helios is built for Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS, but Helios should be buildable on any platform with at least Java 8 and a recent Maven 3 available
- Helios is a Docker orchestration platform for deploying and managing containers across an entire fleet of servers
