DCHQ vs Hyper: What are the differences?
Developers describe DCHQ as "Advanced Platform for Automation of Container based Apps on any Cloud". DCHQ delivers enterprise discipline to Linux Containers application lifecycle management. Available in hosted and on-prem versions, DCHQ provides the most advanced application composition framework extending Docker Compose through environment variable bindings across images, BASH script plug-ins that can be invoked at request time and post-provision and support for clustering for high availability across multiple hosts and auto-scaling. On the other hand, Hyper is detailed as "On-Demand Container, Per-Second Billing". Hyper.sh is a secure container hosting service. What makes it different from AWS (Amazon Web Services) is that you don't start servers, but start docker images directly from Docker Hub or other registries.
DCHQ and Hyper can be categorized as "Containers as a Service" tools.
Some of the features offered by DCHQ are:
- Application-Defined Infrastructure
- Docker Orchestration
- Docker Application Composition
On the other hand, Hyper provides the following key features:
- Hyper is able to launch instances in sub-second. Also, Hyper requires the minimal resource footprint: ~12MB mem
- Hyper is immune from the "shared kernel" problem in container
- Hyper is hypervisor agnostic
