For the record, I don’t disagree with much of what Matt has to say on this topic.). This article on another reason your Docker containers may be slow was an excellent reminder that containerization is not equal to virtualization (that doesn’t make it better or worse, just different), and therefore can’t be treated the same.

Using Jinja2 templates for automating network device configuration is a topic that’s getting a fair amount of attention (there were at least two sessions discussing this technique while I was at Interop). This topic is the subject of some debate given that some claim OVS internal ports perform much better than Linux veth devices.

For example, Tank implies that upgrading OpenStack (or downgrading OpenStack) is easy when the control plane is containerized; I’m not so sure that’s the case (what about inter-project interoperability across multiple versions?). This brings Tank to describe what he calls a “container sandwich”: A bare metal operating system (OS) instance.

Julia has a very conversational style that works well when explaining new topics to readers, I think. I like this article on using Couchbase on AWS from Kubernetes because it addresses an often-overlooked (in my opinion) aspect of containerized/microservices architectures: they still need to communicate to external services.
