Okay, I was reading it as defending why container would solve what OpenStack was set out to solve, which is the proposition I read from the OP I was replying to. Of course, I would advise against running a private cloud unless there is a dedicated team of at least a dozen or so. I applaud Digital Ocean for able to survive and make good business from their private cloud. As a developer I totally agree I just want my code to be deployed and that all the appendices are deployed and configured.
