What's in a Docker image?
I&#x27;ve been building some fairly sophisticated systems with and without Docker, and it is always easier to build such systems without Docker. See here:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.smashcompany.com&#x2F;technology&#x2F;one-write-point-one-read-point-one-log" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.smashcompany.com&#x2F;technology&#x2F;one-write-point-one-r...</a><p>At the end of that essay I go into detail about a recent Docker&#x2F;AWS&#x2F;ECR&#x2F;ECS system I worked on, much of which seemed like a whole lot of useless work that slowed the project and offered no benefits.<p>So I&#x27;m wondering, what is the biggest project success that people can point to regarding Docker? In the above post I link to an article where a developer talks about coming in under budget on a project where they used microservices and Clojure. Where are similar articles regarding Docker? I&#x27;d like to read an article where an individual software developer, preferably someone who already has a good reputation with the tech scene, writes an essay where the theme is &quot;We thought this was going to take 6 months, but once we switched to Docker we were able to get everything done in 3 months.&quot; I find it stunning that there are basically no such articles. Meanwhile, it is very, very easy to link to all of the articles where developers have written about the problems they had when trying to use Docker or Kubernetes.
