    Docker Compose is not a production ready tool. It works great for PoC or development environments, but lacks a lot of the capabilities that are more or less table stakes for serious production use. Swarm is more production-ready, but I would never invest into Swarm in a greenfield scenario. Kubernetes has won the orchestration battle, as evidenced by its inclusion into Docker Desktop and it being offered by all major cloud providers. Kubernetes is much more capable and has far more community and corporate support.

    I would recommend diving into some of the Kubernetes tutorials available at Pluralsight, Linux Academy, etc. and spinning up a cluster to play around with in your cloud platform of choice (EKS, AKS, GKE, etc.). If you are trying to spin up on bare metal, take a look at OpenShift, but recognize that you lose some of the magic of Kubernetes in this setup.
