Why Immutable Infrastructure?

  To ride on a new, shiny meme?)

    Immutable and Agile are the buzzwords of the decade!

      I thought we were done with Agile?

        Yep, hail "Isomorphic micro-service oriented management."

          That's clearly orthogonal to immutability.

  I'm not quite sure what this offers over any number of docker/lxc based systems being developed. Other than maybe they have a slick deploy to AWS. What about GCE, Azure, Joyent and a number of others?

    To answer my own question, this seems to be targeting Java based applications specifically, with a deploy target of a local VirtualBox or remote AWS deploy. In some ways, it seems similar to the early .Net SaaS offerings for Azure. I'm not sure in a world where OpenStack and Docker workflows are taking over that this service will catch on... Most environments that use Java and .Net tend to want to deploy to their own internal infrastructure.
