Kubernetes vs Teletraan: What are the differences?

Kubernetes: Manage a cluster of Linux containers as a single system to accelerate Dev and simplify Ops. Kubernetes is an open source orchestration system for Docker containers. It handles scheduling onto nodes in a compute cluster and actively manages workloads to ensure that their state matches the users declared intentions; Teletraan: Pinterest's deploy system. Teletraan is designed to do one thing and one thing only - deploy. It supports critical features such as 0 downtime deploy, rollback, staging, continuous deploy; and many convenient features such as showing commit details, comparing different deploys, notifying deploy state changes through email or chat, displaying metrics and more. Teletraan currently does not support container based deploy yet, it is on our roadmap to support next.

Kubernetes belongs to "Container Tools" category of the tech stack, while Teletraan can be primarily classified under "Continuous Deployment".

Some of the features offered by Kubernetes are:

Lightweight, simple and accessible
Built for a multi-cloud world, public, private or hybrid
Highly modular, designed so that all of its components are easily swappable

On the other hand, Teletraan provides the following key features:

Rollback
Hotfix
Rolling deploy

Kubernetes and Teletraan are both open source tools. Kubernetes with 55.1K GitHub stars and 19.1K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Teletraan with 1.63K GitHub stars and 212 GitHub forks.

The main reason we have chosen Kubernetes over Docker Swarm is related to the following artifacts:

Applications: An application can be deployed using a combination of pods, deployments, and services (or micro-services).
Functionality: Kubernetes as a complex installation and setup process, but it not as limited as Docker Swarm.
Monitoring: It supports multiple versions of logging and monitoring when the services are deployed within the cluster (Elasticsearch/Kibana (ELK), Heapster/Grafana, Sysdig cloud integration).
Scalability: All-in-one framework for distributed systems.
Other Benefits: Kubernetes is backed by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), huge community among container orchestration tools, it is an open source and modular tool that works with any OS.

What are some alternatives to Kubernetes, Teletraan?

Rancher

Rancher is an open source container management platform that includes full distributions of Kubernetes, Apache Mesos and Docker Swarm, and makes it simple to operate container clusters on any cloud or infrastructure platform.

Buddy

Git platform for web and software developers with Docker-based tools for Continuous Integration and Deployment.

Docker Compose

With Compose, you define a multi-container application in a single file, then spin your application up in a single command which does everything that needs to be done to get it running.

Docker Swarm

Swarm serves the standard Docker API, so any tool which already communicates with a Docker daemon can use Swarm to transparently scale to multiple hosts: Dokku, Compose, Krane, Deis, DockerUI, Shipyard, Drone, Jenkins... and, of course, the Docker client itself.

Tutum

Tutum lets developers easily manage and run lightweight, portable, self-sufficient containers from any application. AWS-like control, Heroku-like ease. The same container that a developer builds and tests on a laptop can run at scale in Tutum.

Portainer

It is a universal container management tool. It works with Kubernetes, Docker, Docker Swarm and Azure ACI. It allows you to manage containers without needing to know platform-specific code.

Cloud 66

Cloud 66 gives you everything you need to build, deploy and maintain your applications on any cloud, without the headache of dealing with "server stuff". Frameworks: Ruby on Rails, Node.js, Jamstack, Laravel, GoLang, and more.

DeployBot

DeployBot makes it simple to deploy your work anywhere. You can compile or process your code in a Docker container on our infrastructure, and we'll copy it to your servers once everything has been successfully built.

Codefresh

Automate and parallelize testing. Codefresh allows teams to spin up on-demand compositions to run unit and integration tests as part of the continuous integration process. Jenkins integration allows more complex pipelines.

AWS CodePipeline

CodePipeline builds, tests, and deploys your code every time there is a code change, based on the release process models you define.
