Docker is dead. (OK, to be fair, it's still in the process of dying).
As Docker don't solve isolation you need to run Docker in VMs anyway, so actually people start to think how to get rid of this unnecessary overhead. The foreseeable future are microVMs (the hype is just heating, projects show up "everywhere"). And in the long run unikernels could become the "packaging format" for those microVMs (but they have to mature first as ease of use, und performance / stability are not there right now).
- 1337shadow 6y agoTalking about the docker practice, which we already had with gentoo hardened with linux vserver.

Unikernels had their hype moment several years ago, and nothing has happened in the meantime. If there is no big leap in tooling, lightweight virtualisation will remain a transparent implementation detail for the cloud vendors.
- bcrl 6y agoI stand by my statement that Docker is static linking for millennials.
- MrBuddyCasino 6y agoYup. Also, Kubernetes is application server for millennials.
