Ask HN: What is the best way to build a new project using mircoservices?

I am working on scoping out a new project that will use microservices. There have been various posts recently that have touched on this topic but I'd like to have real discussion on the pros and cons of the various technologies that exist to deal with building, orchestrating, developing, and deploying decoupled services in a mircoservice architecture.

We have been looking into Docker as that seems to have a lot of hype but there have been concerns there. We've also talked about using salt with a combination of vm's or native lxc or rkt (rocket).

There seems to be lots of material talking about what mircoservices are and how they should be architected on a high-level but not as much about the actual implementation.

The project includes a realtime content component as well as several persistent less dynamic services.

Thanks!
