At my company we did our own docker execution environment. We generally like docker's layers and packaging, but dislike the runtime.

With AWS you already have a virtualization, why do we need another layer?

We packaged a super slim Linux with an init that just has some minimal code reading out of AWS EC2 user info the conf. Downloads docker hub image and runs it as a process.

No virtual networking or ssh access. No magic. Just a process on an aws ec2 instance.
