Reading the comments, this is the official announcement of the bifurcation of the docker ecosystem. This completely shatters docker's original promise of a universal application container. Now we will have standard gauge cars that won't run in the South. Maersk containers that can't be shipped on MSC.
Congratulations to MS though, I think this is a good initiative. Not sure why you even need a partnership with docker TBH as they didn't create the underlying OS technologies that make containerization possible on Linux.. But, with the acquisition of Mojang it is apparent MS is placing a lot of emphasis on acquiring mind share.
- cypher543 12y agoThey didn't create the underlying technologies for containerization on Windows, either. Docker is just providing compatibility with the new container API in Windows Server so that you can use the same tools regardless of the OS. It's no different from what they already do, which is wrap the LXC API.
