   Proxmox provides a GUI, high availability (restarting a LXC container,
if its node fails), balancing node load, Ceph, etc. Does LXD provide any
such things?
   Now that I better understand the functionalities of LXC, it seems to me
that LXD isn’t adding much. The features attributed to LXD, on its ubuntu
page <http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/lxd>, come all from LXC (with the
exception of a REST API). What is LXD adding to LXC?
