This is a different take on the VMscare broadcom purchase.

The real losers here are SoHos where it is too pricy to migrate and also too pricy not to. I don't know whether that's in your 1% or 99% but:

• devs don't develop for infrastructure their customers don't use. It's as dead as LKC, then.
• big customers have deprecated their VMware infra and are only spending on replacement products, and if they do the same for docker the company will suffer in a year.

If docker doesn't have the gov/mil revenue, are we prepared for the company shedding projects and people as it shrinks?

Remember: when tech elephants fight, it's we the grass who suffers.
