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-profits. Also: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/

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 for max price + max check size, the “partners” you bring into

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 (specifically, that core being FOSS licensed, not source-avai

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 natural and complimentary fit! With flexibility as both

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 imperative CM-based (Salt/Ansible) deployment mechanisms. Th

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.wistia.com/medias/ckbmoa10sd

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 how these challenges are somewhat re-imag

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 adopt K8S as a standard framework on which to run containerized

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 400-500 nodes, max."

Only on their public cloud. For internal workloads, they run everything in containers. Mostly cgroups containers.

I see Docker 1.6 in your [2] link, where do you see they are two versions behind Docker?

This is categorically incorrect. K8S will ultimately scale to N number of nodes. Within 2015, it will scale to 1K+ nodes, as per the roadmap. Being modeled after Google's Borg system, I encourage curious/interested folks to read a

I really like that Xoom is taking a phased approach with their service discovery model and not completely throwing out ZK right away. Shows that you can gradually bring Kubernetes into your environment without needing to re-think the entire
