Google Kubernetes vs. Circuit?

In this Google I/O talk:

Take a look at Google's @cmcluck describing Google's next generation DEVOPS infrastructure:

“[Kubernetes and Docker] radically change the game” by bringing “resource isolation”.

The Circuit, http://gocircuit.org, on the other hand, additionally brings “human resource isolation“ and eventually removes the need for OPS engineers.

Which is easier? Which is more understandable? Which is more flexible?

Both are heavily in flux, but google has more experience running containers at scale than anyone. The underlying features in the Linux kernel, cgroups, that containers use, were written almost entirely by google.

Give it 6-12 months and look at both would be my suggestion. That being said, I'd bet on the google stuff as they understand this problem better than anyone.
