Container Orchestration Provider

What is the Container Orchestration Provider?

The Container Orchestration Provider allows ESF to manage Docker. With this tool, you can arbitrarily pull and deploy containerized software packages and run them on your gateway. This Service allows the user to create, configure, start, and stop containers all from the browser. The bundle will also restart containers if the gateway is restarted.

The feature is composed of two bundles, one that exposes APIs for container management and one that implements those APIs. This API is exposed so that you can leverage it to implement containerization in your own ESF plugins.
