BONUS LINKS!!!
- Follow-up: Jake has an update to that CMP slide.
- Coté’s March DevOps column – they kind of added some extra commentary in the headline, but whatever.
- Rise of the Docker Pattern, RedMonk – Cogent breakdown of Docker’s significance, comment in comments about hardware lifecycles is legit.
- And a rebuttal :) – “So is Docker ready for your enterprise app today? Probably not. But if the developers are to be believed, they have a big role to play in defining the future of enterprise virtualization and application development. “
- TNS Container Survey
- Docker Docker Acquisition – Aurora’s one of the schedulers for Mesos. Hiring for Mesosphere/K8s competition?
- PaaS Vendors splitting down lines – Not a ton of new info, could really use a explanation of which vendor does what and why they choose what they choose – K8s: Google, CoreOS, Red Hat, Apprenda – CloudFoundry: Pivotal, Cisco, IBM – Mesosphere: Microsoft – Docker – “The PaaS market is still viewed as the smallest of the three major cloud models, garnering somewhat less interest compared to software as a service and infrastructure as a service markets.”
- Apprenda and k8
- Docker Swarm vs. Kubernetes
- Borg, Omega and Kubernetes in ACM
- SQL Server on Linux!!! – Didn’t see that coming. Availability: “We are bringing the core relational database capabilities to preview today, and are targeting availability in mid-2017.” They can avoid in the top #SunWTF theories: they got friendly with Linux too late. Linus won.
- OS/2 Blue Lion! – First release since 1996
- IBM is Dying
Are you a software nihilist?

Hey, I proudly listen to your podcast. I thought 47 was young until I walked by this heritage site cemetery. Today, I decided to cross the street and read the plaques and tombstones. It was an old Methodist cemetery from 1843. Seems most of the people died between the ages of 20 and 40. That made me sad, realizing I’m not the young keen university graduate any more, just slogging towards voluntary retirement or being walked behind the tool shed by my employer.
On the point of open-source, there is no point anymore, its just a couple of words that has no meaning. The reason my small company of 30 talk about it is because we develop call center software, and its seen by director level and up as a silver bullet. Open-source is seen as a way to not pay for software, to save licensing. So I think for most people who don’t think deeply about it open-source == free and no strings attached.
