Mesos: Your datacenter as one computer

As applications continue to move to public and private clouds, our computing platform should no longer be treated as a tower of pizza boxes. It spans multiple datacenters spread around the world. That brings new challenges to the table to have all building blocks working in concerto, in terms of balancing and plumbing. The Apache Mesos ecosystem provides an holistic approach to this problem in order to deliver web scale performance. Servers will be utilized more efficiently, complexity is reduced, maintenance simplified resulting in a lower bill. And how does it do that? By treating your datacenter as one big computer.
