IMO: Docker does not compete with Glassware
I've said this many times. PT has mentioned this (Container by any other name smells just as sweet). Here's an independent article that was just published yesterday that discusses about the many different types of containers:
http://t.co/n7Ke9Ujp7z
Of note, and I agree with this, is that Docker is changing to become more like a container management/container ecosystem. This was hinted at during the Build conference and officially announced at Dockercon. One key piece that Docker announced during Dockercon is it is spinning out its container runtime - RunC.
https://blog.docker.com/2015/06/runc/
It is abstracting out what defines a container. This is important because it does two things:
* It creates an open standard (http://www.opencontainers.org). FYI: Microsoft is one of the largest contributors to this standard.
* It de-couples the infrastructure plumbing or the Linux stuff
* Users of containers do not have to worry about vendor lock-in
What this means is that even if you create a container, it's infrastructure plumbing can be linked to use any number of container technologies as a solution:
* Glassware (All)
* Docker (Linux)
* CoreOS (Linux)
* Windows Server Containers (Windows)
* Hyper-V Containers (Windows)
etc. etc.
You choose a container technology based on what it does best TODAY. For example, if you are breaking down a monolith application into microservices, you can pick and choose the container technology that currently does it the best. For example:
User Interface (Glassware)
Headless functionality (Docker)
Maybe 6 months down the road, a container technology gets better at doing something else. And at that time, you may re-evaluate and choose to swap out one container technology for another. As Glassware matures and proves itself (and IF the Microvisor approach to running Linux microservices on Glassware is proven to be superior), users will naturally be inclined to evaluate Glassware and move their apps over.
IMO.
