I think the general concensus is that containerisation isn't always better than 'normal' VMs. 'Easy deployment & scaling' is also perfectly possible without containers.

hmm, easy deployment & scaling? also reslient against hardware crashes, etc.
You have to take into account that your storage is persistant,
Have you see what challenge this poses? Love to hear your opinion about it. Maybe this is where using object-storage backend becomes more powerful solution?
you have to take into account getting something like proxy to redirect traffic etc etc.
Yes I thought also proxy/director also become containerized. You said this for teaching a certain point?
If you want to deploy the container on a orchestrator so it is going to be (re)started on a random hosts.
you mention so because all hosts must be connected to same storage?
I managed to get this to work via alpine linux (nice small), but I think I am going back to vm.
what reasons? what kind of vm do you use?
Hello, anyone here has containerized dovecot? Can I ask general advice and experience please? are there any recommended articles/tutorial for containerize deploymnt and auto-scaling? Thank you.
