This will have zero impact on 99% of independent developers. Most small companies can move to an alternative or roll their own infrastructure. This will only really impact large corporations. I’m all for corporation-on-corporation violence. Let them fight.
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.
Hot take: Good for them.
