Flocker vs kube-bench: What are the differences?
Developers describe Flocker 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. On the other hand, kube-bench is detailed as "Checks whether Kubernetes is deployed according to security best practices". It is a Go application that checks whether Kubernetes is deployed securely by running the checks documented in the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark Tests are configured with YAML files, making this tool easy to update as test specifications evolve..
Flocker and kube-bench can be primarily classified as "Container" tools.
Flocker is an open source tool with 3.25K GitHub stars and 298 GitHub forks. Here's a link to Flocker's open source repository on GitHub.
