You just listed a bunch of reasons why your Enterprise should not be using Docker.
EDIT: I did not realize it was per node pricing. I take back mostly everything I said below. I hope that ultimately when Docker does provide 3 years of support, you'll be willing to pay up.
Look at the pricing, even the biggest Enterprise plan is $2000/yr. This is aimed at small consultancies, startups and small businesses, etc that are tired of sending their developers into the docker github issues to log bugs and argue features.
When Docker adds a plan that satisfies your Enterprise, you'll be paying typical Enterprise prices that will be at least an order of magnitude larger than the current biggest plan. Hopefully you are able to put your money where your mouth is.

- shykes 10y agoFor reference here are a few case studies of enterprises using Docker EE in production: - https://www.docker.com/customers/docker-datacenter-delivers-security-and-scale-adp https://www.docker.com/customers/docker-datacenter-delivers-... - https://www.docker.com/customers/ge-uses-docker-enable-self-service-their-developers https://www.docker.com/customers/ge-uses-docker-enable-self-... - https://www.docker.com/customers/ing-delivers-value-customers-faster https://www.docker.com/customers/ing-delivers-value-customer... There are many more here: https://www.docker.com/customers https://www.docker.com/customers Also, as others have noted: the price point is per-node. Docker EE is most definitely for enterprises.
