The 2024 Web Hosting Report
Docker didn’t have a default way to run on multiple hosts, and so in the wake of docker’s explosive adoption there was a rush of different solutions offered for scheduling containers across a fleet. One of the first well-adopted solutions was actually called fleet - it was part of CoreOS, whose team went on to be very influential throughout the container revolution. This was in the systemd era, and was basically seen as a multi-host systemd. It was very cool and it worked great!

What you describe is essentially the original CoreOS fleet[0] project. It's distributed systemd init files.
