Beginner's Guide for Mesos, Marathon, Docker Integration

Question

I scratch my head to understand how a combination of dockers, riots and a marathon can help me create my distributed application.

The application has a backend consisting of services that process client requests and return json data that is consumed by the front end of the user interface. Services must be highly available and scalable. User interaction is supported through REST and a web interface.

I would appreciate if someone could answer my following inquiries:

• Any example / ebook / guide for creating an application using all of the above?
• Does mess / maraton offer native clustering support? or you need to use akka
  clustering or netty in containers?
• How does load balancing with clutter / marathon work?
• Is my application a good use case for these technologies?

thanks
