While Docker may be able to secure additional capital, it’s yet another company that finds itself in an ominous position after raising mounds of cash during the heady days earlier this decade. When Bearden joined in May, he became the fourth CEO and the third since 2017, replacing Steve Singh, a former senior executive at SAP.

The answer is that Anthos is not really a technology, but more of a brand, a wrapper around Google's cloud crown jewels, Kubernetes (K8s).

That agent lets you manage your Anthos cluster and its workloads from the GCP console, deploying and scaling applications.

“We need to think about three things with Pivotal now that it is part of VMware: a common substrate (Kubernetes), the ability to manage it, and a build overlay.
