I was wondering what is really the difference between the two?

"Apache Mesos abstracts CPU, memory, storage, and other compute resources away from machines (physical or virtual), enabling fault-tolerant and elastic distributed systems to easily be built and run effectively."

In other words its a layer above physical hardware (think containers). Rocks handles raw hardware. It would be quite straightforward to run Mesos on top of a Rocks cluster
