###Environment tested
All tests are performed in a cluster of 2 nodes of SoftLayer machines.

###Mesos: version 0.25.0
###Kubernetes: 1.1 branch, packed as a docker image (linsun/km)
For non-Marathon managed Kubernetes, we start Kubernetes with Ansible Docker module, on meson-master node: run the deploy-kube-etcd, which essentially deploys etcs and Kubernetes as 2 containers on Mesos-master node.
###Benchmark: Baseline scalability test: The test executes sequentially the steps below - we wait for completion of each step before starting the next one.
-
Start container on swarm with busybox image, default docker networking with docker bridge and icc = true, and the default httpd server
-
Capture the time it takes for docker run to return - 'Container Launched'
-
Use inspect on launched container to find out when it goes to 'Running' state - 'Container Running'
-
Use inspect to get IP address and host for the container and measure time to TCP connectivity.
