And in a few years they'll work out that they need some HA features and try to retrofit them :-) In the meantime pacemaker is actually rather good at managing containers already and knows a thing or two about HA and how to bring up a complex stack of services. The one thing that would be really interesting in this area is using the our policy engine as the kubernates scheduler.
