Mesos Unified Containerizer

Starting from 0.28, Mesos added support for Unified Containerizer. This aims at standardize and modularize the management of container life cycle including

• Provisioner for fetching, storing, assembling container images
• Launcher for launching containers
• Isolator for monitoring, throttling and managing container processes

Some benefits of running Mesos Unified Container:

• Docker container can be run in a Mesos container, allowing Mesos/custom isolators on Docker image e.g. gpu
• Mesos container can benefit from Docker packaging & distribution mechanism
