summary
Argues Docker wins because of the economics of convenience, claiming around 800 million downloads, and defines a three‑layer stack: automated infra, a container service (Kubernetes, Docker Swarm) and domain tools for teams. Contrasts structured vs unstructured and opinionated vs unopinionated platforms, cites LinkedIn CFKA handling a trillion messages/day, and shows Weaveworks’ components — Weave Net and a connect observe control toolset (release 0.7 yesterday) — that map, monitor and manage containers for blue/green and network ops across ECS, AWS, VMware and bare metal.
