I was going to mention Triton/SDC. It does solve the security issues though it does it by running SmartOS. SDC is pretty cool but docker really needs to be secure in its own right.

It is also worth mentioning that since Joyent has implemented their own docker client, not all features are there yet. Last time I tried docker-compose didn't really work right yet. There is a full list of divergences on their github page. It has a lot of potential though.

Not our own docker client, our own Docker engine, https://github.com/joyent/sdc-docker , which was necessary for the whole DC to be the host. For a taste of the details see https://www.joyent.com/developers/videos/bryan-cantrill-virt... .

Your larger point is correct, we're still working hard every day to add increase the support particularly for the newer docker apis and extensions. Now, docker-compose 1.2 is working in the production datacenters with docker-compose 1.3 in the east-3b (beta) dc.
