I hate that this is the world we've come to, but I think an acquisition by Microsoft would be the best outcome.
Or maybe Oracle could so diabolically implode Docker like a Las Vegas hotel, that everyone will move to something with a much better security model and stop with the containers in VMs nonsense.
- majewsky 7y agoNo one will move to something else, because they already have. Everyone who's running containers in production is either already using Kubernetes with CRI-O or planning to move to it. The Docker client is used only for building and testing images, and there are easy replacements for that as well. That's Docker's problem in the first place.

Yes, everyone except those on the biggest cloud vendor using its containerized application platform [1]. [1] https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/ https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/
- bovermyer 7y agoMm, no. I have clients running Docker Swarm in production. So your claim that "everyone" is running Kubernetes is incorrect.
- rhinoceraptor 7y agoI don't mean move on from docker, I mean move on from the Linux "container" (or illusion thereof). The virtual machine abstraction needs to die.
- beatgammit 7y agoWhy? It's super handy and the general idea has been well proven in FreeBSD and Solaris. It's very convenient to encapsulate all of you dependencies into an environment segregated from the rest of the system, and chroot just isn't complete enough.
- rhinoceraptor 7y agoI agree, the container part is good. The virtual machines they run on are not.
