Interesting to see Alpine, which began life as an embedded linux project is now being used for server deployments. This has to be a win for open source style of projects. Also reminds me of the time when Kroah-Hartman mentioned that people working on embedded linux ended up improving power efficiency of Linux saving the data center guys tons of money.

This right here. There's so many here decrying Alpine who can't see the bigger picture: having options for different Docker deployments will create possibilities currently undreamt of. Maybe you can't use it on your project; fine, keep on keepin' on with what suits you best, but don't knock another project just for a different approach, especially when it might have huge benefits to the overall environment in the future.
