Compose on Kubernetes vs Flocker: What are the differences?

Developers describe Compose on Kubernetes as "Deploy applications described in Compose onto Kubernetes clusters (by Docker)". Compose on Kubernetes allows you to deploy Docker Compose files onto a Kubernetes cluster. On the other hand, Flocker is detailed as "Run your databases in Docker and make them as portable as the rest of your app". Flocker is a data volume manager and multi-host Docker cluster management tool. With it you can control your data using the same tools you use for your stateless applications. This means that you can run your databases, queues and key-value stores in Docker and move them around as easily as the rest of your app.

Compose on Kubernetes and Flocker can be categorized as "Container" tools.

Compose on Kubernetes and Flocker are both open source tools. Flocker with 3.19K GitHub stars and 287 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Compose on Kubernetes with 1.04K GitHub stars and 76 GitHub forks.
