You don't. The benefit ADB gives you (besides ease-of-use) 
is that it runs on Red Hat supported OS and docker variant.

If they already have that setup in their own vagrant/docker based setup
then not a big difference.

Eclipse Plugin for Docker can be used with any Docker container not just ADB
thus not sure why you would call that out as the advantage of ADB.

I don't understand what "submitting a job on K8s" would mean, but
we have OpenShift tooling support.
