The Docker tool provides all of the functions necessary to build, upload, download, start, and stop containers. It is well-suited for managing these processes in single-host environments with a minimal number of containers.
However, many Docker users are leveraging the platform as a tool for easily scaling large numbers of containers across many different hosts. Clustered Docker hosts present special management challenges that require a different set of tools.
In this guide, we will discuss Docker schedulers and orchestration tools. These represent the primary container management interface for administrators of distributed deployments.

The Docker project has given many developers and administrators an easy platform with which to build and deploy scalable applications. In this series, we will be exploring how Docker and the components designed to integrate with it provide the tools needed to easily deliver highly available, distributed applications.
