The document discusses Kontena, an open source container and microservices platform. It describes how Kontena works, including using an overlay network to connect nodes, service discovery powered by etcd, and orchestration to distribute and monitor services across nodes. It provides several built-in features like an image registry, load balancer, and secrets management. Examples are given for setting up a Galera MySQL cluster using containers. The goal of Kontena is to be the number one container and microservices platform for developers.
