When asked what three products respondents plan to use for container orchestration, Ansible received the second most citations, well ahead of its configuration management rivals. Orchestration-specific tools — like Kubernetes, AWS ECS, and products based on Docker Swarm or Mesos — will still be the primary orchestration tools. However, it appears that many people expect to use Ansible, which was recently acquired by Red Hat, as a complementary tool. This is just one of many findings that can be found both in the ebook as well as two recently published SlideShare presentations from Container Camp and Container Summit.
