Swarm mode can also be used on a single node. The benefit is, services automatically start when docker comes up. Using this extensively on my local network to ensure my apps start after reboot.

Totally, by default swarm mode is disabled and when you run swarm init, your docker engine runs in swarm mode on your current node.
