So, the commoditization of on-demand and highly scalable virtual computing infrastructures, together with the rising popularity of "containerization" for app and service composition, seems to be creating an "orchestration crisis", or an "orchestration business opportunity," depending on your vantage point. Are we about to see the emergence of what might be termed "new wave mainframe" computing?
I'm a recent mesos convert but I think "first" is a tad inaccurate if you consider Joyent's SmartOS and it's recently open sourced Smart Data Center.

There are a lot of components to an operating system. It's not just the technology components, it's the product components and the business components. E.g., Does it have an API? Does it have an SDK? Does it have a user interface? Does it have an init system, a chron, a storage system, service discovery? Does it have an ecosystem of third party developers? I posit that the OS Checklist is fairly long and that no of t…

Mesosphere's stack is in full production at major companies, including one of the largest financial services companies and one of the largest consumer electronics companies. General availability is next year, but paying customers are using it in production today--at very large scale.
Mesosphere should really evangelize libprocess [0] more. Probably one of the cooler C++ libraries out there. [0] - https://github.com/apache/mesos/tree/master/3rdparty/libproc...

Datacenter Controller maybe, but calling this an OS?

OK. But, what is it? I tried reading the documentation, but all it said was "readme: this is the readme for libprocess."
