I am wondering about Opennebula and the containers strategy. Traditionally Containers are looked upon as “virtualisation” killer. May or may not be correct. But Dockerisation has taken off and all application vendors are packaging their applications in containers. As far as opennebula is concerned , this may be trivial as you can always spin up a VM and install docker in it. But if you making it easier by more closer integration it will be great. I see docker machine stuff but docker bought Tutums and bring your own node is interesting \> [https://support.tutum.co/support/articles/5000513678-bring-your-own-node](https://support.tutum.co/support/articles/5000513678-bring-your-own-node)

Any thought ?

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, as soon as we resume our docker integration we will take a look at that!
