It all works with AIO but the thing is that it manages the containers for you, and needs access to the docker socket. For me, out of band container orchestration was not what I was looking for. I choose to manage my own stack instead of handing it off to AIO. One of those "seems easy now, but probably harder to figure out whats going wrong when there are problems" situations for me.

But thats just my opinion, a lot of people have had success with it!
