        • Cloud Rules Everything Around Me
        • As summarized by Derrick (via CNBC:
          • AWS brought in $3.66 billion in revenue, which was up 42 percent from last year. However, year-over-year growth dropped from last year’s first quarter.
          • Microsoft’s “Intelligent Cloud” unit, which includes Azure, grew 11 percent, to $6.8 billion. Microsoft doesn’t break out Azure revenue specifically, but said Azure saw a 93 percent increase in revenue over last year.
          • Google Cloud is buried somewhere in “Other Bets” on Alphabet earnings, a segment that grew 50 percent to $3.1 billion.
          • What’s the Halo Effect on this? It’s easy to blame the big vendors for shying away from public cloud but it was some scary shit, business-case wise, back in 2008.
          • Verizon sells cloud stuff to IBM.
            • Docker is now Moby, wait what?
            • LinuxKit - the host OS, where you run the containers.
            • “Moby is recommended for anyone who wants to assemble a container-based system”
            • Moby = open source development
            • Docker CE = free product release based on Moby
            • Docker EE = commercial product release based on Docker EE
            • Moby is the name of the upstream umbrella project supervising the open source pieces that are used to build Docker, which is now the commercial-focused product Docker CE/EE
            • Letter about Mobyan-open-letter-to-docker-about-moby/
            • Moby is Fedora, Docker is like RHEL, Eclipse, Genuitec.

              • Jay Lyman at 451: “It generated revenue of about $36m in 2016.” - I seem to recall that EngineYard would report on revenue.

                                • “2+1 redundancy is cheaper than 1+1 and, when there are 3 facilities, a single facility can experience a fault without eliminating all redundancy from the system. Consequently, whenever AWS goes into a new region, it’s usual that three new facilities be opened rather than just one with some racks on different power domains.”
                                • “latency is not the prime driver of very large numbers of regions”
                                • “being close to population centers and major communications hubs matters to most operators more than cooling costs”
