Docker Swarm Visualizer vs k3s: What are the differences?
What is Docker Swarm Visualizer? A visualizer for Docker Swarm using the Docker Remote API, Node.JS, and D3. Each node in the swarm will show all tasks running on it. When a service goes down it'll be removed. When a node goes down it won't, instead the circle at the top will turn red to indicate it went down. Tasks will be removed.
What is k3s? Lightweight Kubernetes. 5 less than k8s (by Rancher Labs). Certified Kubernetes distribution designed for production workloads in unattended, resource-constrained, remote locations or inside IoT appliances. Supports something as small as a Raspberry Pi or as large as an AWS a1.4xlarge 32GiB server.
Docker Swarm Visualizer and k3s can be primarily classified as "Container" tools.
Docker Swarm Visualizer and k3s are both open source tools. It seems that k3s with 7.81K GitHub stars and 483 forks on GitHub has more adoption than Docker Swarm Visualizer with 2.58K GitHub stars and 405 GitHub forks.
