The document provides an overview of WSO2's container strategies, detailing reference architectures for various container orchestration platforms such as Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift, DC/OS, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry. It outlines best practices for deployment automation and includes resources for WSO2's GitHub repositories for each platform. Key elements discussed include container registries, load balancers, persistent volumes, and security management across different deployment environments.

● Use a container registry
● Use host port mappings for exposing container ports
● Use a load balancer with health checks
● Configurations are packaged into the container images
● Use persistent volumes for sharing runtime artifacts
● No, cluster discovery
● No, container auto-healing
● No, container auto scaling
