作为跨国集团阿里巴巴成立的分支公司，蚂蚁金服增长迅速，估值超过 1500 亿美元。 作为跨国集团阿里巴巴成立的分支公司，蚂蚁金服增长迅速，估值超过 1500 亿美元。这家金融科技创业公司于 2014 年成立，旗下包含全球最大的在线支付平台支付宝，同时还通过充分利用科技创新推出了多项其他服务。支付宝拥有 9 亿多用户，每天都有海量的交易通过其本地和全球合作伙伴达成。2017 年双十一高峰期的每秒交易量高达 256,000 笔，2018 年双十一的商品成交额更是高达 310 亿美元。蚂蚁金服以“为世界带来更多平等的机会”为使命，致力于通过科技创新能力，搭建一个开放、共享的信用体系和金融服务平台。 除了金融服务外，蚂蚁金服还运营着其他业务，例如花呗在线信用系统、借呗借款服务、以及拥有 3.5 亿用户的蚂蚁森林绿色能量移动应用。存储和计算集团产品管理负责人 Haojie Hang 对此表示，蚂蚁金服面临着“以全新方式处理数据的挑战。我们认为这一处理规模会带来三个严峻挑战：1. 如何提供实时计算、存储和处理能力，以便开展为欺诈检测提供实时建议等工作；2. 如何从这些数据中挖掘智能，尽管当前我们有很多数据，但我们并未能从中获得足够的洞察；3. 如何在应用程序级别、中间件级别、系统级别甚至是芯片级别保证安全性。” 为了应对这些挑战并为其客户提供可靠和一致的服务，蚂蚁金服在 2014 年采用了 Docker 容器化技术。但很快，他们便意识到需要一款编排解决方案，来支持公司数据中心内拥有数万个节点的集群。 该团队研究了多项技术，包括 Docker Swarm 和 Mesos 等。Hang 指出：“我们开展了大量的概念验证 (POC)…
