Can you expand on 5.? I'm not following what you mean by 'need to scale cluster first to scale app'.



Sure.

Lets say I have a cluster of 2 machines.

I deploy my Docker container using Marathon, the constraints is that it's unique per machine.

Now, I want to scale my app to 30 containers.

Without Marathon controlling Amazon APIs and actually scaling my underlying cluster to 30 machines first, the scale will never happen.

This creates a disconnect between scaling strategies.
