Config Management and Containers: If all containers are equal, why are you proposing I use [chef|puppet|ansible|salt] and containers again?

Today’s perception of containers is primarily focused on the “Dockeriziation” of application containers. Or the forward progression pattern of adopting microservice architectures to achieve immutable results. Meaning - Config Management is a direct antipattern..

The proper answer here is that we can achieve proper microservice patterns, in familiar environments using the tools we’ve had on hand all along. Bringing this knowledge into containers has real world benefits and I’ll show you how.
