`swarm` is a simple tool which can control all machines in your distributed system using a variety of backend adaptors, and exposes it on a single, unified endpoint. `swarm` is a simple tool which controls a cluster of Docker hosts and exposes it as a single "virtual" host.
`swarm` uses the standard Docker API as its frontend, which means any tool which speaks Docker can control swarmd transparently: dokku, fig, krane, flynn, deis, docker-ui, shipyard, drone.io, Jenkins... and of course the Docker client itself. `swarm` uses the standard Docker API as its frontend, which means any tool which speaks Docker can control swarmd transparently: dokku, fig, krane, flynn, deis, docker-ui, shipyard, drone.io, Jenkins... and of course the Docker client itself.
