If you have a CoreOS, etcd or Rocket implementation, tutorial or use case now is a great time to share. How do you apply CoreOS for automatic server updates? Do you have any stories about your implementation of etcd to keep an application up when a server needs or goes down? Any exciting ways you have applied Rocket, the first container runtime based on the Application Container specification?
If you are interested in writing about your experiences with CoreOS, etcd or Rocket, email press@coreos.com and we will give you support to make your post a success. More details about the competition are here.
