Record details and sources

Overview

Docker Swarm provides native clustering functionality for Docker containers, which turns a group of Docker engines into a single, virtual Docker engine. It uses the standard Docker API, so any tool that communicates with a Docker daemon can use Swarm to transparently scale to multiple hosts. Docker Swarm offers high level of integration, is easy to setup and provides a simple way to scale out.

The API uses the active release. For a reproducible reference, pin the dataset download, version, schema and checksum.
