Centurion vs faas-netes: What are the differences?
Developers describe Centurion as "A mass deployment tool for Docker fleets". A deployment tool for Docker, made by New Relic. Takes containers from a Docker registry and runs them on a fleet of hosts with the correct environment variables, host volume mappings, and port mappings. Supports rolling deployments out of the box, and makes it easy to ship applications to Docker servers. New Relic is using it to run their production infrastructure. On the other hand, faas-netes is detailed as "Kubernetes as a back-end for OpenFaaS". This is a plugin to enable Kubernetes as an OpenFaaS backend. The existing CLI and UI are fully compatible. It also opens up the possibility for other plugins to be built for orchestation frameworks such as Nomad, Mesos/Marathon or even a cloud-managed back-end such as Hyper.sh or Azure ACI.
Centurion and faas-netes can be primarily classified as "Container" tools.
Centurion and faas-netes are both open source tools. It seems that Centurion with 1.72K GitHub stars and 111 forks on GitHub has more adoption than faas-netes with 1.35K GitHub stars and 228 GitHub forks.
