I have worked at large companies before, and one theme of them was always stagnation. They never really expanded after their initial product was developed. Years and years worth of man-hours were just spent on beauracracy, reinventing the wheel and just sitting around doing nothing (harshly put). A lot due to the leadership and lack of motivation.
I'm just so amazed by the level of innovation going on at Docker, and none-stop delivering of new features. All the while building a very solid base product. I'm genuinly intrigued at how they are able to do this, and grow so fast. How can all these new products be spawned, and yet still be relevant in the grand scheme of things? Sorry for sounding preachy, I really love what Docker is doing.
And technically there is probably a lot to dislike about Docker. I get that vibe from some comments in this thread. While everything is not perfect (yet), the Docker eco-system is just such a besutiful blend of user experience and function. Even their marketing is spot on. It feels almost like I started loving Docker because of the cute whale!
