I think performance is not the main reason for going stateless for most people. With stateless you can more easily achieve HA of your auth server. Since it is all stateless your auth servers dont need to know about each other. However with

At the time we looked at OpenShift and decided not to use it because there was no easy wat to update an openshift cluster. In all fairness I have no clue what the current state of this issue is. For us it was important enough to be a deal b

If a company gets a big enough marketshare it's not that simple. If Google would have de-listed Protonmail just because "they could" that would be a problem (legal wise) in the EU. Since they also specifically target EU count

Userland isn't duplicated, it's 2 totally separated userlands. The userlands may be the same distro in case of Xen (for example RHEL 7) but they still lead separate lives; They are different installations. So that's also mult

Well performance aside there is also the benefit of not having to maintaining userland.

If you want to take mono into account as the first free .net implementation you should take GCJ into account as free Java implementation. GCJ was started in 1998....

While I really respect Brendan's opinion (I've got most of his books and he is one of my IT heroes) I do think he is very netflix-IT-scale minded. When your Netflix you can maintain your own kernel with ZFS, DTrace, etc. and have

True, and that very long post basically says with many words: "Yes, Linux namespace (docker) isn't as secure as FreeBSD jails or Solaris Zones but security is not the problem docker solves. Docker solves a deployment problem, not

Is BTRFS really an option now that RedHat has decided to pull the plug on their BTRFS development? That basically leaves Oracle and Suse I think? As far as I can tell the future of BTRFS doesn't look good. Facebook using it doesn'

Nice article! Though I do think the article could have more clearly noted that Linux containers are not meant as security boundaries. It doesn't explicitly say it but it is a very important distinction. Unlike FreeBSD jails and Solaris

From what I understand most of the SPARC people got laid of too. So unless Fujitsu really ups it's SPARC game I doubt there is much future for SPARC.

The last part about patents is not true. The OpenJDK has a patent pledge in it. Google even started incorporating OpenJDK into Android to protect itself from the patent case. The whole patent case with Oracle was not about OpenJDK but about

With all the complexity of OSGi I wonder if it isn't easer to go full microservice right away. With OSGi everything becomes complex real fast; Testing, troubleshooting class loader issues, etc. Also having one misbehaving bundle will
