Michael from Portworx here. Thanks for the shout out. Just for some context, we just announced a partnership with Mesosphere today to help accelerate adoption of DCOS for stateful services [0] in fact. We handle the automation of all the state management mentioned above, not just volume provisioning. Our customers include big companies like GE and Dreamworks but also a lot of smaller companies. You can use PX-Dev[1] for free up to 3 nodes. Would love feedback.
