"Do not confuse Docker Swarm mode with Docker Classic Swarm which is no longer actively developed." https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/

Docker Swarm mode has been in maintenance mode for at least 5 years now. It's way to late to bet the house on a product that exists pretty much to support people that have bet on it, not to completely pull the rug under their feet.

I introduced Docker Swarm at work in 2018 and already there were rumours that since Kubernetes had won it was just a matter of time until Docker Swarm was fully abandoned.

What's strange is Docker Compose is very slowly resurging. I almost feel like that with a few more primitves (e.g. nodes with tags) and you'd have a much simpler Kubernetes. Which a lot of people might like.

Why MongoDB?

Kubernetes' API-server is a fairly small shim over etcd, another ReST data-store. MongoDB provides a similar web-ful data-store that probably greatly eases implementation, is low-impedance.

Not that I would do the same, but I can understand to some degree.

It kinda makes sense if you render objects as json (vanilla apiserver use protobufs on the wire except for crds). Im curious if mongodb supports CAS semantic properly - i heard transactions are still a pain there
