A developer created Jagura as a proof-of-concept to manage containers using SQL commands instead of traditional methods like shell scripts or dashboards.
Jagura allows Docker container management through a custom execution engine that interprets SQL queries into Docker-level operations.
While Jagura doesn't aim to replace tools like Docker Compose or Kubernetes, it provides a unique and fun approach to container orchestration.
The project reflects the developer's desire to merge the declarative elegance of SQL with the operational aspects of container orchestration, offering a fresh perspective on managing containers.
