My biggest question on Docker / k8s: How does one control where persistent data lives and the required performance characteristics? Example: I need SSD + a certain level of availability? Is there a good strategy for managing this?
Either (a) you have network based block device and the master/manager maps that to a machine dynamically as the container get scheduled or (b) you constrain the containers to machines that have the hardware/data you need.
(b) is less than ideal but sometimes necessary.

pick my vm size/ pick my docker image/ and go?
AKA does this bring me one step closer to docker-oku-aaS?

Do you see this being useful for analytical workloads (ie i need a bunch of cores for a short time to run a parallel job) or more focused on scaling web apps and services?

I'm kind of confused. I get that they run on the Google VMs (which need a base OS, yes?) so does this manage all of that? Can I: pick my vm size/ pick my docker image/ and go? AKA does this bring me one step closer to docker-oku-aaS?
If you just want to launch a static set of containers on a specific VM, you can use our Container VM image -- https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/containers/container_v....
Kubernetes (and GKE) is a dynamic system to run across a cluster of machines.

Is it possible to run a KVM VM inside one of the containers? I have an application for launching and managing VMs and letting people spin up a Google container to try it out would be neat.
But if you are running Kubernetes on bare metal, there is no reason you couldn't map in /dev/kvm and have k8s run VMs for you. I haven't done it though :)
