They spent only $15M of the nearly $500M in VC they raised to get to a $500M+ ARR business. Let that sink in.

Sam doing a 180 on non-profit to for-profit was egregious, IMHO. Having said that, plenty of extremely profitable organizations masquerade (literally and figuratively) as non-profi…

I love the casual feel of this app. I would just keep this humming along in the background during code sprints and general digital (a)syncing with friends.

I hear you... but this "run an auction" narrative he's proposing is very dangerous if implemented in any way close to actual auctions.

This is horrifically BAD advice. Shopping a TS to a few folks is not an unwise thing to do, but running a full-blown auction absolutely is! Founders: If you want to ONLY optimize f…

Hey, Tony. :) I believe that COSS companies are extremely successful when they are able to build large and successful positive-sum and inclusive ecosystems around their FOSS core (…

Envoy is an extremely exciting project. I've been following it closely since OSS inception and am thrilled to see the upcoming deep integration with the Kubernetes project. Such a …

My team at Apprenda built the first K8s distro/toolkit (0) with support for Linkerd last year. 0: https://github.com/apprenda/kismatic/blob/master/docs/LINKER...

The folks behind Rook at Quantum have put together an operator (custom K8s controller and TPR) for Rook: https://github.com/rook/rook/tree/master/demo/kubernetes

As long as your apps run well in containers (Docker or Rkt or others even), they can run and work well on K8s, which also runs well on AWS. You should consider K8s to replace imper…

Minikube is awesome! We used it at Apprenda in a recent K8s 101 webinar (0). Standing up a local K8s cluster in 1-2 minutes is a really great experience. (0): https://apprenda.wist…

Thanks for the great blog, Mike!

I think the article provides some great foundational perspectives on how HA/service discovery/port mgmt and so on were handled in the "pre-containers" era of VMs with a look into h…

Kubernetes is supported on AWS by various companies in the industry, including my own, Kismatic (the enterprise Kubernetes company). We have been pushing for the team at ECS to ado…

Great series, Kamal! Keep up the great work.

Disclaimer: I work for Kismatic. It's exciting to see further investment in Intel® Clear Containers. At Kismatic, we have been fans (0) of Clear Containers since the beginning! (0)…

To clarify, this entire statement is categorically incorrect: "The only thing I'll add is that k8s isn't targeting the same scale as Mesos. Their current goal is to support up to 4…
