    Abstract: As the cloud services and container based micro-services are starting to get the production workload
within enterprise IT infrastructures the need for application portability and effective orchestration across
various virtualized, containerized, hardware and legacy platforms is getting apparent. With application systems
spawning multiple platforms the network functions as routers, load balancers or firewalls are becoming integral
part of production application stacks. In this study, we provide a comparison of state-of-the-art orchestration
tools. The main goal of the work is to create PoC environment that can test execution of sample application
architecture model at various deployment scenarios: hybrid multi-cloud and cloud-container deployment
setups.
