I thought docker just makes creating, deploying and managing LXC "enabled" applications easier. Do they add anything to the LXC ecosystem other than the online sharing of containers?
- seiji 13y agoDoes github add anything to git other than a multi-tennant gitweb with a prettier interface? git: worth nothing. github: worth a billion dollars.
- goldfeld 13y agoI'm sorry but git is not "worth nothing," it's just that it's a public good and doesn't belong to anyone to sell, hence it has no market value. But consider how much software companies would pay not to have git taken away from them and then consider how much they would pay not to hake github taken away[1]. Which is harder to replace? I'm betting on git. [1]: Imagine a hypothetical scenario where github had mercural as an alternative (for the case git was taken away.)
- yalogin 13y agoWhoa. I am not questioning the business model of something I am obviously not familiar with. It was more of a technical clarification/question since the topic is purely technical.
- evilduck 13y agoI'm merely an observer since Docker interests me, but I from what I gather the magic of Docker is LXC and AuFS combined.
