What kind of issues you have got into? I would like to hear from you. Though I don't have any experience of managing containers, argument does not make a lot of sense to me. They are pitched as holy grail which will get rid of entire IT team managing the operating system i.e. upgrades, patching, and configuration management. It just looks counter-intuitive to me as any new upgrade, bug fix , or security patch still needs to be applied to base OS. Containerized application can move freely from one host OS to another host OS but they will still depend on same underlying environment.

> They are pitched as holy grail which will get rid of entire IT team managing the operating system i.e. upgrades, patching, and configuration management. They don't. Containers push a lot of that responsibility out to the developers. You still need operators if you're running your own IaaS substrate. Disclosure: I work for Pivotal, we do some stuff with containers.

  With respect to your "Future Roadmap", I'm obliged to encourage you to look at Cloud Foundry. It has some code in common with Docker at the lowest level, but the bulk of it is written from the ground up, fully TDD, fully pair-programmed, proved in production for several years running. I'm also obliged to disclose that I work for Pivotal, the majority donor of engineering to Cloud Foundry.
