Abstract
Centralized and hybrid container orchestration systems are a bottleneck for the scalability of cloud applications. Due to data replication costs the cluster can consist only of a handful of servers. A decentralized peer-to-peer systems are needed. We propose such a system whose architecture is the same as the microservice architecture of the cloud application it manages. It can potentially offer performance improvements with respect to the existing centralized container orchestration systems.
