The document discusses orchestration using Tutum, a hosted container orchestration service. It introduces Tutum and its features, such as spreading services across nodes, making efficient use of nodes, inter-host communication, deployment to specific nodes, APIs, monitoring, and logging. It explains that after 3 months of experimenting with various orchestration tools, Tutum met all of its needs for orchestration, abstraction of complexities, and powerful APIs. Finally, it provides some pros and cons of Tutum, noting that while it is easy to use and fully featured with great support, it does have vendor lock-in and is not self-hosted.
