SHOW NOTES:


IT’S HARD TO SEE THE FOREST FOR THE TREES

  • Docker was the transition between OpenStack (bad foundation) and Kubernetes (CNCF)
  • Was Docker a Community or a Cult? How did Leadership work?
  • Docker was stuck between VMware and Developers

WHAT HAS THE INDUSTRY LEARNED FROM THE DOCKER DAYS?

  • Customers and communities are very hesitant to adopt another single-vendor offering
  • Could Docker have succeeded as a “free” implementation?
  • As much as DevOps and PlatformEngineering are happening, it’s tough to have an “in between” technology (used by both Infra and AppDev)
  • It’s OK to adapt your monetization model, but it’s not OK to not have one
  • Open source can’t be the driving force of a business. It’s not a charity. 
  • If somebody offers you $3B, maybe consider taking it….
