Are there applications for containers, and management for containers? Absolutely! However, does everything have to be a container, of a container, in a container managed by a container? No, and stop insisting it should be.
I probably have a talk once a month about moving everything to Docker and Kubernetes, but apart from myself, no one on the team understands why it's all buzzwords. It's not all buzzwords, except that the majority of people using the terms don't understand what they're saying, how the idea would work, or why it does or doesn't make sense.
In our product there's one, literally one piece, a large piece, where containers are prefect, and really embody the natural use of containers and container management. Everything is else is just buzzword nonsense, tipping over to stupidity.
I've been in meetings with Microsoft, where a CSM or ECSM will just rattle off their list of “tech buzzwords”, and then spin some insane application out of those words (which would never work). They then insist containers are the future, and we should migrate everything, without exception. When I ask how the application of containers would work, and for details, they promise to research, talk to other “experts” and get back to me. It's been years, no one has ever got back, because by the time the CSM or ECSM talks to an educated person, they roll their eyes, sip coffee slowly and think: “You're an idiot.”
This is painfully hilarious!
