I think Joyent's right here. Docker's open and progressively enhanced API is a godsend. Somewhere around 0.7x they basically enabled the entire existence of my business, just by virtue of having a good API. I frankly don't even care about the rest of the orchestration vs bloat stuff - I want a good API and good performance. The rest is secondary.

What is your business? How has the API helped you? Genuinely curious :)

  https://coderpad.io/ https://coderpad.io/ - It's a realtime tool for conducting interviews, for programmers. Docker lets me do a wide variety of tricky stuff involving the execution of untrusted code, like provide REPLs with very low latency.

    Relying on containers for security is a recipe for none.

      I didn't say solely :)

    Very nice tool. I suggest including some popular libraries (modules) like Text::CSV for Perl. In fact, every Perl program has already been written, it is just a 'use' away.
