# Machine Roadmap
|
|
|
|
Machine currently works really well for development and test environments. The
|
|
goal is to make it work better for provisioning and managing production
|
|
environments.
|
|
|
|
This is not a simple task -- production is inherently far more complex than
|
|
development -- but there are three things which are big steps towards that goal:
|
|
**client/server architecture**, **swarm integration** and **flexible
|
|
provisioning**.
|
|
|
|
(Note: this document is a high-level overview of where we are taking Machine.
|
|
For what is coming in specific releases, see our [upcoming
|
|
milestones](https://github.com/docker/machine/milestones).)
|
|
|
|
### Docker Engine / Swarm Configuration
|
|
Currently there are only a few things that can be configured in the Docker Engine and Swarm. This will enable more operations such as Engine labels and Swarm strategies.
|
|
|
|
### Boot2Docker Migration Support
|
|
Currently both Machine and Boot2Docker provider similar functionality. This will enable users to migrate from boot2docker to machine.
|
|
|
|
### Expand Provisioner
|
|
Machine currently supports running Boot2Docker for "local" providers and Ubuntu for "remote" providers. This will expand the provisioning capabilities to include other base operating systems such as Red Hat-like distributions and possibly other "just enough" operating systems.
|
|
|
|
### Windows Experience
|
|
Currently, the Machine on Windows experience is not as good as the Mac / Linux. There is no "recommended" path to use Machine and there are several inconsistencies on Windows such as logging and output formatting.

Project Planning
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
An [Open-Source Planning Process](https://github.com/docker/machine/wiki/Open-Source-Planning-Process) is used to define the Roadmap. [Project Pages](https://github.com/docker/machine/wiki) define the goals for each Milestone and identify current progress.
