  2. Unified Social Media: Allow seamless posting across platforms, ideally leveraging Twitter's existing reach.
  3. Native ChatGPT Downloads: Eliminate the need for external plugins to download chat sessions.
  4. Universal Link Insertion Shortcut: Standardize link insertion across apps (Cmd-K for everyone!).

  6. Universal Free/Busy Calendar: Facilitate effortless scheduling across platforms.

  8. Granular Screen Time Controls: Empower users with detailed control over device usage.
  9. Regulate Car Rental Insurance Fees: Put a stop to excessive and unfair insurance charges by rental companies.

  • Italy had a swamps that were drained: “The road proved difficult to keep above water. Under Augustus, a compromise was reached with the construction of a parallel canal. The part of the marsh above sea level was successfully drained by channels, and new agricultural land of legendary fertility came into being. Whenever the channels were not maintained, the swamp reappeared. Meanwhile, frequent epidemics of malaria at Rome and elsewhere kept the reclamation issue alive. Under Benito Mussolini's regime in the 1930s, the problem was nearly solved by placing dikes and pumping out that portion of the marsh below sea level. It continues to need constant maintenance. Italian confidence in the project was so high, the city placed by Mussolini in 1932 in the center of the marsh, Latina, became the capital of a new province, Latina.”

  • Pivotal kubernetes stuff, alpha of running all the stuff on Kubernetes (PKS), Pivotal’s JRE/Tomcat product now GA.
    • “PAS on Kubernetes is packaged as a tile for Ops Manager, and uses BOSH to deploy its system components. It requires vSphere, NSX-T, and Enterprise PKS. “ (“Tile” is Pivotal speak for “feature/sub-system/plugin/extension/component/product/etc.”)
    • Good summary from NL coverage:
      • Build Service: Easily automates container images for developers and offers companies audit and security controls that are needed to work with confidence on a large scale. Build Service is made possible by the CNCF Cloud-Native Buildpacks project and is co-developed by Pivotal.
      • RabbitMQ for Kubernetes: Automates the implementation and management of RabbitMQ. In addition, RabbitMQ is configurable and offers a self-service experience for developers;
      • Service Mesh: Automates the installation and configuration of Istio. This allows developers to drop apps to production quickly and safely. In addition, it provides secure networks that businesses need.
      • Spring Runtime: It offers comprehensive support for Java environments, including OpenJDK, Spring Support and Apache Tomcat.
    • The New Stack: The Pivotal Application Service Addresses Kubernetes Complexity.
    • Pretty good summary of Pivotal Cloud Foundry as a whole: “Pivotal Application Service is a software application development platform based on the open-source Cloud Foundry project, which provides a range of clouds, developer frameworks and app services to work with. The idea is to make it easier for developers to build, test, deploy and scale up their apps on a variety of cloud platforms.”
    • Taft: “This reflects an important strategic shift by Pivotal to acknowledge the importance of Kubernetes as an integral component of customers' application modernization programs, said Charlotte Dunlap, an analyst at GlobalData in Santa Cruz, Calif.”
    • Jeffrey Hammond, Forrester: "For a while I've spoken to enterprises that are worried that they have to make a choice: PAS and Cloud Foundry, or go with Kubernetes and give up what they like about PAS. This makes it possible to keep what they like about PAS and work at a higher level of abstraction, without worrying about somehow missing out on all the innovation going on in the Kubernetes world."
  • IBM kubernetes stuff, at OSCON.
    • ‘Appsody is pitched as allowing developers to quickly create microservices to their organisation’s standards and requirements, using pre-configured stacks and templates for “popular open source runtimes and frameworks, providing a foundation to build applications for Kubernetes and Knative deployments.”’
    • ‘Codewind, is a project to provide extensions to IDEs, starting with VS Code, Eclipse and Eclipse Che, to allow them to be used to build containerised applications.’
    • ‘As for Kabanero, this aims to bring together projects like Knative, Istio and Tekton, along with Codewind, Appsody, and Razzee, to allow users to “architect, build, deploy, and manage the lifecycle of Kubernetes-based applications.” The project includes “pre-built deployments to Kubernetes and Knative (using Operators and Helm charts)…so, developers can spend more time developing scalable applications and less time understanding infrastructure.”’
  • For Digital Transformers, It's About Fast-Moving Data. Here Are Three Ways to Speed Up.
  • The Google Cloud Developer's Cheat Sheet.
  • IBM's Last Report Without Red Hat Was a Mixed Bag.
  • Bulgaria Beat: Data of Nearly Every Adult in Bulgaria Likely Stolen in Cyberattack.
  • Apple is reportedly planning to pay for exclusive podcasts. Hot-take: 🙄
  • IBM and Microsoft get milly-ons from AT&T for cloud stuff:
    • IBM: ‘As part of the agreement announced Tuesday, AT&T will use Red Hat’s open-source platform to manage workloads and applications and “better serve” enterprise customers. AT&T and IBM will also team up on developing “edge computing platforms” that harness 5G networks and internet-connected devices.’
    • Microsoft: Office 365, plus: “Beyond AT&T’s own internal use of Microsoft technology, the companies are working together on developing tools for artificial intelligence and high-speed 5G wireless, and plan to announce additional services later this year.”
    • Also, coverage from Tim Anderson at The Register.
  • Google Maps now displays bike-sharing stations worldwide - cities’ traffic planning and management is fully disrupted, really. They (well, meaning us via taxes) have to suck up the capital costs and upset people while the usual tech people skim data for advertising profits. Plus, you know, we get really good transportation options. See opening prattle.
  • Computer password inventor dies aged 93, meanwhile, Turing to be on 50 pound note.
  • IBM Takes A Hands Off Approach With Red Hat: “Given that it has been a decade and only 20 percent of the workloads have moved, there is a lot that is going to stay private and on premises, and we need a way to operate in all of these environments as opposed to having different siloes that can’t and have skills fungibility across all of them.”
  • Symantec share price nose dives after rumored Broadcom biz gobble taken off the menu.
  • Judge shoots down Oracle protest over $10B JEDI cloud contract, leaving Amazon and Microsoft as finalists.
  • Amazon’s Latest Experiment: Retraining Its Work Force: “The e-commerce giant said Thursday that it planned to spend $700 million to retrain about a third of its American workers to do more high-tech tasks, an acknowledgment that advances in technology are remaking jobs in nearly every industry — and that workers will need to adapt or risk being left behind.”

]]> There’s a couple kubernetes announcements this week: we mostly talk about Pivotal’s, and a tad on IBM. Plus, maybe scooters are actually good for cities and compiling source code for your infrastructure software is probably a bad idea. Don’t @ us.

Buy Coté’s book dirt cheap!

Mood Board:

  • Evil Hodor is cancelled.
  • Must be this short to ride free.
  • The full mullet of monitoring.
  • There is no nuance to this statement.
  • Just keep using VMware.
  • If you’re compiling the source code, you’re gonna have problems.
  • LAMP stack.
  • Tell me how to do what I want, not why I can’t do it.

Relevant to your interests

  • Pivotal kubernetes stuff, alpha of running all the stuff on Kubernetes (PKS), Pivotal’s JRE/Tomcat product now GA.
    • “PAS on Kubernetes is packaged as a tile for Ops Manager, and uses BOSH to deploy its system components. It requires vSphere, NSX-T, and Enterprise PKS. “ (“Tile” is Pivotal speak for “feature/sub-system/plugin/extension/component/product/etc.”)
    • Good summary from NL coverage:
      • Build Service: Easily automates container images for developers and offers companies audit and security controls that are needed to work with confidence on a large scale. Build Service is made possible by the CNCF Cloud-Native Buildpacks project and is co-developed by Pivotal.
      • RabbitMQ for Kubernetes: Automates the implementation and management of RabbitMQ. In addition, RabbitMQ is configurable and offers a self-service experience for developers;
      • Service Mesh: Automates the installation and configuration of Istio. This allows developers to drop apps to production quickly and safely. In addition, it provides secure networks that businesses need.
      • Spring Runtime: It offers comprehensive support for Java environments, including OpenJDK, Spring Support and Apache Tomcat.
    • The New Stack: The Pivotal Application Service Addresses Kubernetes Complexity.
    • Pretty good summary of Pivotal Cloud Foundry as a whole: “Pivotal Application Service is a software application development platform based on the open-source Cloud Foundry project, which provides a range of clouds, developer frameworks and app services to work with. The idea is to make it easier for developers to build, test, deploy and scale up their apps on a variety of cloud platforms.”
    • Taft: “This reflects an important strategic shift by Pivotal to acknowledge the importance of Kubernetes as an integral component of customers' application modernization programs, said Charlotte Dunlap, an analyst at GlobalData in Santa Cruz, Calif.”
    • Jeffrey Hammond, Forrester: "For a while I've spoken to enterprises that are worried that they have to make a choice: PAS and Cloud Foundry, or go with Kubernetes and give up what they like about PAS.

  • CloudBees acquires software automation startup Electric Cloud, French coverage.
    • Jay@451’s summary: “Given the sprawl of tools and platforms for enterprise DevOps and CI/CD software releases, CloudBees' purchase of Electric Cloud represents a welcome consolidation in the industry. It also continues DevOps M&A that began with JFrog's acquisition of Shippable earlier this year. The deal should also have a broad impact on enterprise DevOps since CloudBees – backer of the widely used Jenkins CI server – will add release management, orchestration, automation and other aspects of CD from Electric Cloud, a leading enterprise DevOps specialist. The combined offerings should help provide feedback for enterprises throughout CI/CD release processes, enabling and enhancing feedback loops that are critical to successful DevOps implementations. The move may also help both vendors address the use of cloud-native software such as containers and Kubernetes, as well as hybrid cloud infrastructures that span on-premises, public and private cloud environments.”
    • Electric Cloud has ~110 employees, CloudBess ~400.
  • Harness raises $60 million to automate continuous app delivery with machine learning:
    • “brings Harness’ total raised to around $80 million and values the company at $500 million, will be put toward R&D and hiring, said CEO Jyoti Bansal — particularly on the development, sales, and customer success side of the business.” (So, not marketing, HR, or finance.)

It also continues DevOps M&A that began with JFrog's acquisition of Shippable earlier this year. The deal should also have a broad impact on enterprise DevOps since CloudBees – backer of the widely used Jenkins CI server – will add release management, orchestration, automation and other aspects of CD from Electric Cloud, a leading enterprise DevOps specialist. The combined offerings should help provide feedback for enterprises throughout CI/CD release processes, enabling and enhancing feedback loops that are critical to successful DevOps implementations. The move may also help both vendors address the use of cloud-native software such as containers and Kubernetes, as well as hybrid cloud infrastructures that span on-premises, public and private cloud environments.”

]]> There’s a lot of notions about what IT executives actually want to hear in a presentation. It turns out that, like all of us, they just want to hear what they want to hear. Also, is kubernetes really a platform for building platforms, or just a platform?

    • What was Java treated like way back in the mid-2000s Sun days?
    • Should you pay for this kind of thing?
    • It seems like the answer is just to run an OpenJDK version (Oracle even has one) or pay for support. With OpenJDK you have to do updates/patches yourself…but, then, that’s why you don’t have to pay for it. Pay for it, and you’re paying someone else to worry about that.
    • Forrester Report:
    • “The new subscription's prices for Oracle Java SE support — $25 a month per server core and $2.50 a month per Java client — apply to all Oracle Java SE commercial customers. Previously, only Oracle's Java SE Advanced customers paid support fees to obtain security patches among other benefits ($5,000 per processor, plus 22%).”
    • Oracle to do two Java releases a year, but many companies are way behind and don’t like upgrading. Like, if you haven’t reached release management maturity: “Executing manual regression tests multiple times each year to stay on the latest version of OpenJDK will prove to be a labor-draining exercise, but so will automating existing manual tests and keeping them up to date.”
    • Old stuff likes old pricing models: “For Java runtimes, however, monthly subscriptions have minimal advantage, as most applications are now stable workloads. Most customers don't need pricing that allows them to scale down, as they almost never will.”
    • From their blog on the topic: “Under the best of circumstances, a technology base of Java’s size, age, and complexity can’t pivot within six months to new support structures carrying big potential additional costs.”
  • Thieves of Experience: How Google and Facebook Corrupted Capitalism.
    • “surveillance capitalism uses human life as its raw material. Our everyday experiences, distilled into data, have become a privately owned business asset used to predict and mold our behavior, whether we’re shopping or socializing, working or voting.”
    • If you’re not buying a product, you are a product “gets it wrong. Surveillance capitalism’s real products, vaporous but immensely valuable, are predictions about our future behavior — what we’ll look at, where we’ll go, what we’ll buy, what opinions we’ll hold — that internet companies derive from our personal data and sell to businesses, political operatives, and other bidders.”

Yes. “The most boring topic of all time.” Also, Slack's logo and long term support software monetization models: how do they work? 1:04:37 true Are we still on that open source licensing thing? Yes. “The most boring topic of all time.” Also, Slack's logo and long term support software monetization models: how do they work?

Summary:

  • “Diapers.com buster (AKA Amazon)”
  • “What is someone really selling with LTS?”
  • “Artful genitals.”
  • “It’s not butt ducks”
  • “I’ve had three dogs since then…”
  • Microsoft laughed.

This week’s cover art from TheNextWeb.

MONGO, MONGO, MONGO!
  • MongoDB Issues New Server Side Public License for MongoDB Community Server
  • MongoDB not in RHEL 8.0
  • MongoDB "open-source" Server Side Public License rejected
  • AWS vs. open source: DocumentDB is the latest battlefront
  • AWS gives open source the middle finger
  • AWS, MongoDB, and the Economic Realities of Open Source (Ben Thompson) Fine, fine…but music companies didn’t “sell” CDs, they sold music. Authors don’t “sell” printed books, they sell stories. They sell IP. The medium isn’t the product.
    • “This trade-off is inescapable, and it is fair to wonder if the golden age of VC-funded open source companies will start to fade (although not open source generally). The monetization model depends on the friction of on-premise software; once cloud computing is dominant, the economic model is much more challenging.”
    • There’s some ponderous gyrating between public cloud being good at managed hosting/services (they run the stuff well) vs. software (their features are unique/good).
  • Ben’s follow-up (subscription required):
    • “ Atlas was only 8% of total revenue last year, which grew 57% year-over-year; that means that Atlas itself grew 330% year-over-year, from $3.3 million to $14.3 million. Of course cost of revenue grew 68% as well, thanks to a $4.1 million increase in hosting costs (AWS wins either way), but particularly given the addition of a free Atlas offering, those costs aren’t out of line.”
  • So, with this “SSPL” thing, AWS would have to open source all of itself, or just the DocumentDB part?
    • Here: “The specific objection is that SSPL requires, if you offer services licensed under it, that you must open-source all programs that you use to make the software available as a service.
    • From Mongo’s press release on SSPL, Oct. 2018: “The only substantive change is an explicit condition that any organization attempting to exploit MongoDB as a service must open source the software that it uses to offer such service.”
  • What would happen if AWS was all open source? Given that few companies could use OpenStack or make their own clouds (even with cloud.com and such), just having the code matters little to a successful cloud business, right?
    • Or, maybe it doesn’t mean all of AWS, just the DocumentDB part. Which is, really, the in the spirit of the GPL.
  • The competitive tactic of forcing competitors to open source their stuff is weird.

This episode is sponsored by SolarWinds® and this week, SolarWinds wants you to know about their tools designed for DevOps: Pingdom®, AppOptics™, Papertrail™, and Loggly®.

Today’s recognized pillars of observability combine metrics, traces, and logs to enable DevOps teams to monitor system and application performance. But, these capabilities provide only limited insights into application performance because they ignore the user’s experience—a critical measure of application performance.

Understanding if a system is slow or unavailable from an end user’s perspective is crucial in today’s digital world, even if the metrics are good and there are no alerts.

Altogether, the combined functionality of Pingdom, AppOptics, Papertrail, and Loggly brings together real user monitoring, synthetic user monitoring, web and application performance metrics, distributed tracing, event aggregation, and log management to help proactively identify bottlenecks and accelerate troubleshooting.

By bringing user experience, metrics, traces, and logs together with an easy-to-use, complementary toolkit, DevOps teams gain unmatched visibility into their cloud environment, so they can seamlessly follow an alert or issue from one product into another to resolve issues quickly and get back to focusing on the more proactive elements of their job.

Over 275,000 customers worldwide and 499 of the Fortune 500 trust and rely on SolarWinds for their monitoring software. To learn more or try the company’s DevOps products for free, visit http://solarwinds.com/devops.

VMware buys Heptio

  • VMware acquires Heptio, the startup founded by 2 co-founders of Kubernetes
  • Pivotal’s take: We’re Looking Forward to Welcoming Heptio to the Family! This is Why Our Customers Will be the Big Winners.
  • RedMonk’s O’Grady:
    • What Heptio actually does: “the company chose a unique path of not quite product company, and not quite full service company, but borrowing elements of both. This fit the market need in many cases, but posed significant challenges from a marketing and messaging standpoint, as the market understands product companies and service companies but is less comfortable with descriptions that don’t entirely fit into either bucket.”
    • “None of [the open source tools developers love(d) so much] concerned VMware particularly, because as its early developer attention waned its popularity within the operations side of the house – and central IT in particular – boomed. Which has been good for the company generally as central IT has historically been less concerned both about software being open source and being free than developers, which has led to VMware becoming an enterprise datacenter standard which in turn led to its current $60.7B market cap – a valuation roughly double that of Red Hat’s, for context.”

IBM and Red Hat Acquisition

“I like the ones where you prepare.” (Coté ed.)

  • Look, Red Hat and IBM are Pivotal competitors, good ones: we wish them success in this complex integration, it’s good they’re finally trying to fix their cloud portfolio, we’re hiring, etc., etc.. Let’s take it for mature-granted that we’d prefer enterprises be Pivotal customers than IBM/Red Hat customers. Now, let’s put that aside.

  • This is an exquisite slide from their deck:

    • Easily the best corporate deck slide of 2018.

  • First, this is a bold, good move. Acquiring Red Hat has always been a hill too high and it’s kind of mind-blowing that someone actually did it. The valuation here is sort of besides the point of anything impressive. In contrast, the GitHub valuation was impressive because GitHub is a one product company (please don’t email me about “community” as a separate product - sure thing, I agree). Red Hat is kind of everything IBM has missing…except public cloud.

  • To be, I guess, contrarian and annoyingly not Pivotal-biased, I think it’ll be hard for IBM to fuck this up.

  • On that last point, Ben Thompson: “The company has spent the years since then claiming it is committed to catching up in the public cloud, but the truth is that Palmisano sealed the company’s cloud fate when he failed to invest a decade ago; indeed, one of the most important takeaways from the Red Hat acquisition is the admission that IBM’s public cloud efforts are effectively dead.”

    • In other word, IBM is too late to catch-up to public cloud co.’s, it’d need to spend lots of capex to get close.
    • Related, sick nerd burn: “Meanwhile, [IBM’s] aforementioned commitment to the cloud has mostly been an accounting fiction derived from re-classifying existing businesses”

  • Fixing IBM’s cloud business. What was wrong in the first place?

  • Things Red Hat has: RHEL revenue, JBoss developer presence, product/developer know-how, support know-how, OSS good-will, OpenShift as a k8s distribution:

    • RHEL & IBM has a foot-print in most all enterprise stacks, but not public cloud(?)
    • IBM knows how to eek out OS revenue, so does Red Hat.
    • JBoss + WebSphere. At some point, IBM had a huge developer community. They likely do among enterprise developers (but even there, it’s been fading). Red Hat has developers - I assume. People do like kubernetes.
    • The know-how and good will are interesting - added to IBM’s OSS equivalent (they still have that?) you have, potentially, the biggest OSS people around…? I’m not sure which standards bodies this allows them more control over, no which projects. Google and Microsoft are contenders here too.

  • “Lock-in”:

    • From the press release: “research shows that 80 percent of business workloads have yet to move to the cloud, held back by the proprietary nature of today’s cloud market.” (No citation provided. I will assume it’s from the Anonymous Galactic Research Board Whose IP Licensing Policy Prohibits Your From Citing Us By Name Because We Prefer to Peacefully Float In Space Like Those Rasta Dudes in William Gibson Books But The Good Early Ones Not The Weird In The Present Ones Except For the Blue Color of Bigend’s Suit Which Was Actually Pretty Cool - But Cuban Parkour Ninja Cults? Boy.)
      • See also: Turns out Pareto was some kind of every single study ever genius. Shut it down, boys, turns out every survey result ends up in an 80/20 split.
    • As ever, this topic vexes me. I take lock-in to mean:
      • I don’t want to keep paying this rent-seeker, aka, “maintenance contracts - AMIRIGHT?.” I’m just interested in paying less. If you gave me a closed source offering that was free, I’d be just as happy.
      • I don’t want to get trapped in an aging stack that isn’t evolving (e.g., I want to use node.js on UNIVACs, or something), so I need “the freedom to leave” to get the benefits of new technologies.
      • I like having the source code for transparency, to make my own forks, and/or because rainbows and sandals.
    • Like, seriously, what options do you have to move to?
    • DIY stack - you’re going to take the IBM/Red Hat stack and run it all on your own, merging in new releases and patches, even forking and evolving it yourself. Will all the IBM stuff be available? What if you run on VMware or Azure or Softlayer? How do you rebuild that entire stack? So you just want to rebuild a little bit of it? If you throw OpenStack with KVM in there, plus whatever SDN and storage stuff you could get in open source, throw in some OSS network routing…you could get away with the only proprietary thing being chips and other rando hardware things. You’ll need some bare-metel BIOS/firmware update things.
      1. Begged question: how far (and up!) the stack do you want to be un-proprietary? Only use OSS Android on jail-broken phones? No iPhones, clearly, and toss out Safari, macOS, and Windows - maybe you can cruise in with some HTML5 stuff through Firefox and Chrome on the desktop and mobile, then on some Eclipse for GUIs?
    • AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, AzureStack, Pivotal ready stack with VMware - perhaps you could take the thin k8s and PaaS layer from the Red Hat IBM stack and move it to those clouds? Will that work? Is it better, economically and innovation roadmap-ally than just sticking with IBM/Red Hat
    • Alibaba and the other non-Western clouds. Same.
    • MSPs like Rackspace. Maybe - the Rackspace people could just run whatever you want. See concerns of #1, plus the premium paid for “fanatical.” Maybe Rackspace has some SRE magic that allows them to do what you’d be doing at 80% of the cost, or something.
    • I don’t understand this reasoning. How is IBM + Red Hat lack of “proprietary nature”? If I’m running an IBM/RedHat stack, can I just move off all my workloads over night, paying nothing to move and then run my workloads, like, perfectly? If I’m running on that stack, and then I want to move to Google Cloud, does that work? Where-else would I go? Can I just take my pods and throw them onto Azure?
    • Also, if any of these are practically true - it’s a shitty business for IBM/Red Hat to be in, at least a huge risk for them to carry. Any time a customer cashes in on freedom to leave, that’s lost revenue to IBM/Red Hat.
    • My point is: I wish we’d stop talking about lock-in and focus on more practical matters, namely, does the technology work, does it work in a good ecosystem/community (I can find and make it work with other stuff), does it evolve/innovate at a pace I like, and am I happy with the initial and ongoing costs. If the answer to all of those is yes, I don’t think people care about OSS versus closed. But what do I know, I don’t know such stuff, I just do slides.

  • What really matters is getting the two sales forces to sell each other’s stuff, esp. accelerating OpenShift. The IBM sales force has to sell moving away from their traditional offerings (WebSphere, 3 tier, etc.) and instead sell modernizing to OpenShift. That’s fine, but a lot to ask. Also, the comp. plans might get dicey. Part of the point of modernizing is to reduce costs, implying a lower up-front deal-size and smaller ongoing deal-size. So, you’re asking the IBM rep to sell cheaper products, potentially. And if you’re not, see lock-in screed above on pricing. There’s not much upside to sales people here, aside from maybe holding onto an eroding market, but that’s years out, sales people are short-term focused by design. Red Hat sales people might fare better because they’re used to that deal size and can sell more; however, IBM sales people will resist these Red Hat people getting into their account and snatching their paper. All of this is not a killer, but likely the bulk of work that needs to be nailed to synergize maximally (my favorite type of synergizing).

If you throw OpenStack with KVM in there, plus whatever SDN and storage stuff you could get in open source, throw in some OSS network routing…you could get away with the only proprietary thing being chips and other rando hardware things. You’ll need some bare-metel BIOS/firmware update things.
      1. Begged question: how far (and up!) the stack do you want to be un-proprietary? Only use OSS Android on jail-broken phones? No iPhones, clearly, and toss out Safari, macOS, and Windows - maybe you can cruise in with some HTML5 stuff through Firefox and Chrome on the desktop and mobile, then on some Eclipse for GUIs?
    • AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, AzureStack, Pivotal ready stack with VMware - perhaps you could take the thin k8s and PaaS layer from the Red Hat IBM stack and move it to those clouds? Will that work? Is it better, economically and innovation roadmap-ally than just sticking with IBM/Red Hat
    • Alibaba and the other non-Western clouds. Same.
    • MSPs like Rackspace. Maybe - the Rackspace people could just run whatever you want. See concerns of #1, plus the premium paid for “fanatical.” Maybe Rackspace has some SRE magic that allows them to do what you’d be doing at 80% of the cost, or something.
    • I don’t understand this reasoning. How is IBM + Red Hat lack of “proprietary nature”? If I’m running an IBM/RedHat stack, can I just move off all my workloads over night, paying nothing to move and then run my workloads, like, perfectly? If I’m running on that stack, and then I want to move to Google Cloud, does that work? Where-else would I go? Can I just take my pods and throw them onto Azure?
    • Also, if any of these are practically true - it’s a shitty business for IBM/Red Hat to be in, at least a huge risk for them to carry. Any time a customer cashes in on freedom to leave, that’s lost revenue to IBM/Red Hat.
    • My point is: I wish we’d stop talking about lock-in and focus on more practical matters, namely, does the technology work, does it work in a good ecosystem/community (I can find and make it work with other stuff), does it evolve/innovate at a pace I like, and am I happy with the initial and ongoing costs. If the answer to all of those is yes, I don’t think people care about OSS versus closed. But what do I know, I don’t know such stuff, I just do slides.

  • What really matters is getting the two sales forces to sell each other’s stuff, esp. accelerating OpenShift. The IBM sales force has to sell moving away from their traditional offerings (WebSphere, 3 tier, etc.) and instead sell modernizing to OpenShift. That’s fine, but a lot to ask. Also, the comp. plans might get dicey. Part of the point of modernizing is to reduce costs, implying a lower up-front deal-size and smaller ongoing deal-size. So, you’re asking the IBM rep to sell cheaper products, potentially. And if you’re not, see lock-in screed above on pricing. There’s not much upside to sales people here, aside from maybe holding onto an eroding market, but that’s years out, sales people are short-term focused by design. Red Hat sales people might fare better because they’re used to that deal size and can sell more; however, IBM sales people will resist these Red Hat people getting into their account and snatching their paper. All of this is not a killer, but likely the bulk of work that needs to be nailed to synergize maximally (my favorite type of synergizing).

  • This week in IPOs: Elastic has a party, Solarwinds figuring one out.
    • Elastic: “The stock closed at $70 per share, representing a 94.4 percent rise.” Close of market on Oct. 10th: $62.50 per share.
    • 451 on Elastic revenue, Scott Denne: “The developer of open source search software for IT log analysis, security analytics and other applications nearly doubled its top line in its fiscal year (ending April 30) to $160m, up from $88m a year earlier, while increasing the share of subscription revenue in its mix.”
    • More: “Judging by Elastic’s offering, the [Q3] dry spell had little impact on investor appetites, setting up a favorable environment for Anaplan and SolarWinds as both look to price this month.”
    • 451 on Elastic’s product, Nancy Gohring: “One of the most important messages that emerged from ElasticOn is that Elastic is positioning its software to serve as a platform for collecting and analyzing a wide array of machine data that can be used in a variety of use cases. With its recently announced APM UI and the forthcoming Infra UI, as well as the Canvas visualization capabilities, SQL-like querying and advancing machine-learning techniques, the Elastic Stack will be usable as a centralized platform for collecting and analyzing logs, events and metrics by constituents within a business including IT ops, security, executive leadership, product management and others.”
      • So, Elastic is…an OSS (presumably) cheaper Splunk, but for general search not just IT? Or, wait, it is just IT stuff?
    • Solarwinds: Coté hasn’t been able to parse out the Solarwinds deal. The big question is/will be, “so, did it make sense to go private, or could that have done whatever they’re doing by staying public?”
  • Serverless and FaaS, survey shows confusion: “Despite attempts to educate the market, we still believe the word “serverless” connotes many different things, especially for the 79 percent of organizations that plan to adopt serverless architecture but have not planned to use FaaS in the next 18 months.”
    • Coté’s old saw that “serverless” has just come to mean “doing programming on-top of cloud shit.” This is what Pivotal usually means when they say “cloud native,” versus the container kids who mean just “kubernetes,” at broadest, “containers.”
  • Cloudera/Hortonworks follow-up:
    • TPM: “Cloudera has raked in $1.28 billion in revenues in the past six and a half years, while Hortonworks only brought in $808 million. Add in the venture capital of $1.31 billion in venture capital, plus $225 million that Cloudera raised in early 2017 for its IPO and the $100 million that Hortonworks raised in late 2014 from its IPO, and the total pile of cash that has come to the pair is $3.69 billion. Hortonworks still has $86 million of cash and Cloudera still has $440.1 million. But over that same time period, Cloudera has booked cumulative losses of $1.19 billion and Hortonworks has cumulative losses of $979 million, for a total of $2.16 billion. Both separately and together, these companies are burning the wood a lot faster than they can cut it.”
    • TPM’s TAM summary, as suggested by the two companies: “The core market that Hadoop is chasing is comprised of three different segments, according to Cloudera-Hortonworks, and will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 21 percent between 2017 and 2022, from $12.7 billion to $32.3 billion. Within that, cognitive and artificial intelligence workloads represent a $14.3 billion opportunity in 2022, $4.9 billion for advanced and predictive analytics software, and $13.2 billion for dynamic data management systems (what we would call modern storage). In addition to that, the Hadoop platform is also chasing relational and non-relational database management systems and data warehouses, which is another $51 billion opportunity in 2022, for a total TAM of $83 billion. Even a small slice of this, which is what Hadoop currently gets today, could be billions of dollars by then.”
    • Forrester on TAM penetration, Noel Yuhanna: “We estimate that [just] 7% of organizations have completely migrated their traditional data warehouses to big data platforms. “ That’s 93% more left, assuming 20% capture for a leader, (shoddy percentage math follows)17 to 18%, I guess?
    • Meanwhile, also from Forrester: “While 74% of global data and analytics decision makers tell us they will have invested in a big data lake by the end of 2017, we find that many of these are being kept on life support by the technology management shops that drove them.”
    • Also, Forrester on HARK (Hadoop & Spark), Noel Yuhanna & Mike Gualtieri: “Distributed computing software and services that are rooted in open source Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark to store, process, and analyze data to find and use insights to improve customer experiences, create timely business intelligence, optimize business processes, and make decision making smarter and faster.” Like traditional analytics, but bigger and with more ML?
    • 451 (Matt Aslett & James Curtis): “Although there are cross-selling opportunities and the two companies share an underlying open source foundation, there are also significant areas of product overlap and competing functionality, as well as a history of animosity to overcome.”
    • Tamped down TAM: “Another way of looking at this is that the Hadoop market hasn't expanded enough to support the growth targets of two independent publicly traded companies, especially with the cloud providers to contend with.”
    • Cloudera is the winner: “While the deal is being described by the companies as a merger, make no mistake that Cloudera is acquiring Hortonworks. After the transaction closes, Cloudera shareholders will own approximately 60% of the combined company, which will do business as Cloudera, with Hortonworks shareholders owning approximately 40%.”
    • Products, Hortnworks: “Its primary product is the Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP), which consists of core Hadoop and some 20+ open source projects. But in August 2015, the company purchased Onyara, which was based on the Apache NiFi technology, and designed to enable users to collect, process and distribute data.”
    • Products, Cloudera: “To date, Cloudera offers several products and while Hortonworks has adopted a pure 100% open source approach. Cloudera has a hybrid strategy, mixing open source with its proprietary tooling. The company's core offering is the Cloudera Enterprise Data Hub (CDH) – specifically targeted products are provided for data warehousing, operational database, and data science and engineering. Its cloud offering is Altus, a PaaS available on AWS and Azure.”
    • 451 in another report (Agatha Poon), on Cloudera, June 2018: “At present, data analytics tools and offerings are driving regional opportunities with enterprises slowly but clearly moving out from legacy data warehouse platform to a new generation of data analytics platform, which is highly distributed and open standards based, Cloudera says. For machine learning and advanced data analytics, the company believes that data scientists will be the main users and strategic partners to boost future uptake. While data scientists can make use of algorithms to train the model into production data clusters, it could be a time-consuming and complex endeavor. With that in mind, Cloudera has stepped up its game by acquiring applied machine learning research startup Fast Forward Labs in late 2017, deepening its expertise in applying machine learning to practical business problems. The bigger Cloudera says it is committed to researching new techniques to resolve real-world business problems, building codes as well as providing customers with machine learning advisory services leveraging Fast Forward Labs' domain expertise.”
    • Cloudera strategy: “Cloudera's proposition remains largely unchanged: lead machine learning in the enterprise, disrupt the data warehouse market for analytical and operational data workloads, capitalize on cloud adoption and drive innovation for simplification while mitigating data security risk. With cloud being an agent for digital transformation, the company has publicly announced its intent to lead with cloud innovation as part of the future growth strategy at the company level.”

Relevant to your interests VMworld NA 2018 Redis stinkup - the mysteries of making money by actually selling something
  • Coté: now, what’s the deal here? They closed source some stuff that maybe others had contributed to, taking advantage of good will, and/or they’re just now charging for what used to be free? (Are there other open source scandal scenarios?)
  • Joab and Lawrence at The New Stack: “While the core of Redis itself remains under the permissive BSD license, the company has reworded the licensing for some of its add-on modules, in effect blocking their use by third parties offering commercial Redis-based services — most notably cloud providers. Redis Labs was able to make this change because it retains the copyright to the open source code.”

  • Adam Jacob Twitter thread on commons clause.
SUSE Revenue Watch

SUSE is all like “PE Mane, call me!”

  • Somehow, this has become a bit in the show. Blame Coté.
  • Something like ~$360m based on trailing 6 months runrat’ed to 12 trailing. Also, likely non-GAAP reporting (not clear if it’s ACV vs. TCV), but whatever.
  • Grind and stack: “EBITDA for that period was $56 million, nearly 23 percent year-over-year growth.” So: ~$112m profit, ~31% margins.
  • That’s the kind of stable (they claim to run 70% of SAP apps), growing cash-throw-off that should make PE people drool on their Patagonia puffy vests: “Following last week's shareholder approval of Micro Focus' proposed sale of SUSE to EQT Partners for $2.535 billion, the transaction is expected to complete in the first quarter of calendar 2019, subject to customary regulatory approvals.”
  • If my math is right (it’s established that I don’t know how numbers work), clawing in all profits would pay that $2.5bn off by 2026: 8 or 10 years of holding growth and profit %. Of course, you’d sell it off before that.

  • Related, Istio 1.0: “It is aiming to be a control plane, similar to the Kubernetes control plane, for configuring a series of proxy servers that get injected between application components. It will actually look at HTTP response codes and if an app component starts throwing more than a number of 500 errors, it can redirect the traffic.” MUST BE THIS HIGH TO RIDE!
  • Follow-up: Brenon at 451 says Broadcom is gonna have to sell off some stuff to make it’s margin targets. The mainframe profits are too high, while distributed is low enough to throw the margins out of whack. So, sell off distributed to Micro Focus? To PE BMC? Or a bad analysis.

  • Everyone’s favorite Outlook feature, now in G Suite.
  • Do we know what “serverless” is yet? Someone named that got some funding.
  • Related, Istio 1.0: “It is aiming to be a control plane, similar to the Kubernetes control plane, for configuring a series of proxy servers that get injected between application components. It will actually look at HTTP response codes and if an app component starts throwing more than a number of 500 errors, it can redirect the traffic.” MUST BE THIS HIGH TO RIDE!
  • Follow-up: Brenon at 451 says Broadcom is gonna have to sell off some stuff to make it’s margin targets. The mainframe profits are too high, while distributed is low enough to throw the margins out of whack. So, sell off distributed to Micro Focus? To PE BMC? Or a bad analysis.
  • Austin Regional Clinic is in Apple Health records. Pretty nifty that it sucks them all in...sort of.
  • Robots make your pizza. Featured in that OKR book. For real.

DevOpsDays MINNEAPOLIS - JULY 12-13, 2018

Get a 20% discount for one of the best DevOpsDays on the planet, DevOpsDays Minneapolis. It's July 12th to 13th, and you can bet it'll be worth your time. If you're new to DevOps you'll get an idea of what it is, how it's practices, and how to get started. If you're an old pro, you'll dive down into topics and catch-up with all the other old hands. Code: SDT2018.

  • Google Cloud Platform breaks into leader category in Gartner's Magic Quadrant. The Full Gartner MQ. Register coverage.

  • Infrastructure software is back! Also, Amazon’s DB has huge growth.
  • “Full Life-cycle Developers” at Netflix

    • Which is to say, something like, “shallow DevOps.”
    • “Netflix created centralized teams (e.g., Cloud Platform, Performance & Reliability Engineering, Engineering Tools) with the mission of developing common tooling and infrastructure to solve problems that every development team has. Empowered with these tools in hand, development teams can focus on solving problems within their specific product domain.”
    • “As additional tooling needs arise, centralized teams assess whether the needs are common across multiple dev teams. When they are, collaborations ensue. Sometimes these local needs are too specific to warrant centralized investment. In that case the development team decides if their need is important enough for them to solve on their own.”
    • “we arrived at a model where a development team, equipped with amazing developer productivity tools, is responsible for the full software life cycle: design, development, test, deploy, operate, and support”…but not the infrastructure, common middleware and services, and “platform” that they run on. Just like SRE, eh? Which the post says.
    • Use of the roads seems optional, and sometimes challenging to recruit for: ‘Netflix has a “paved road” set of tools and practices that are formally supported by centralized teams. We don’t mandate adoption of those paved roads but encourage adoption by ensuring that development and operations using those technologies is a far better experience than not using them. The downside of our approach is that the ideal of “every team using every feature in every tool for their most important needs” is near impossible to achieve. Realizing the returns on investment for our centralized teams’ solutions requires effort, alignment, and ongoing adaptations.’
    • Coté had dinner with Netflix tools engineer many years ago where they described exactly this.
    • Question: what exactly is DevOps (now) anyways? Is it too expansive to be useful as a phrase, and instead a buffet of thought technologies?
  • BMC changes PE hands:
    • Brenon@451: “Terms of the BMC secondary weren't released. However, early reports indicated that the price paid by the syndicate for BMC and the price received for BMC [$6.9bn five years ago] weren't radically different.”
    • Same: “the software vendor that says it posts revenue of $2bn each year.”
    • The reporters are like “I got no idea what the fuck these people do”: “Houston-based BMC builds various types of software solutions for businesses looking to manage and streamline their information.”
    • “BMC has about 6,000 employees in 30 countries, according to its website.”
    • “BMC has more than $5 billion in debt outstanding, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.”

Follow-up #chefconf OpenStack Summit
  • So, it’s still NFV heavy with existing enterprise deploys? Plus, Mirantis us pushing for a CI/CD focus?
  • Haven’t read the survey yet.
  • Brief Register coverage: VMwware updates, AT&T and others donate some code, Solarwinds adds in some more support.
  • VMware likes NFV: ‘VMware is targeting the telecom industry with this release. Gabriele Di Piazza, VMware Telco NFV Business Unit's VP of products and solutions, said in a statement, "VMware Integrated OpenStack 5 will enable customers to achieve the massive scale required to power Telco and private clouds globally, and address NFV and edge computing use cases as telecom networks evolve towards 5G."’
  • Shuttleworth gonna Shuttleworth: “If you want OpenStack and Kubernetes support with vendor independence at a low price, Canonical is your company. If you prefer a partner, which offers a soup-to-nuts stack, but at a higher price, look to Red Hat. And, of course, if you're already wedded to VMware, you've made your choice. There's room for all these approaches to the 21st century cloud and containers.”
  • Over on TechCrunch, in his layup, Frederic Lardinois paints a picture of the current Story of OpenStack.
    • “That current state produces fewer flashy headlines, but every survey, both from the Foundation itself and third-party analysts, show that the number of users — and their OpenStack clouds — continues to grow.”
    • Mirantis, after $200m in funding, refocusing(?) on CI/CD with Spinnaker support, “shrunk from almost 1,000 employees to 450 today, but as Mirantis CEO and co-founder Boris Renski told me, it’s now cash-flow positive.”
    • Boris: “I think that Spinnaker should become part of the Foundation. That’s the opportunity and I think it should focus 150 percent of their energy on that before it builds its own thing and before [Spinnaker] goes off to the CNCF as yet another project.”
  • Caroline Donnelly covers the quest to become a more general foundation for infrastructure stuff, started in 2015 with “The Big Tent” positioning.
  • Side-note: Donnely’s and Lardinois’s articles are good example of doing good tech journalism (I mean, I always like more charts and TAM’s, but they don’t really do that over art Oath - could have also gotten a paragraph of “the kubernetes threat” backed up by usage momentum surveys - but, hey! - pretty good all around.).

US military says “get of my lawn, you kids” to AWS mono-usage

  • ‘Rival contractors complain that the winner-take-all approach favors Amazon.com Inc., the biggest supplier of cloud services. But Pentagon officials made clear they have little patience for continuing debate over the issue. In response to a question on the “rationale for a single award for this contract,” the answer posted was blunt: “This rationale is not going to be published at this time.”’
  • More: “It was a decision the department made based on its needs, so adding context there doesn’t benefit us.”
  • But, actually, it’s just one pick for now: “The contract, known as JEDI -- for the the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure Cloud Program -- won’t prevent the Defense Department from working with other cloud vendors in the future.” IBM doth protest too much?
  • Check out Bloomberg’s layman’s definition of cloud: “Cloud services -- in which computing power and storage are hosted in remote data centers run by a third-party company rather than on-site in locally owned machines -- can make it easier for large organizations to move and integrate data across different platforms, quickly expand the data storage it needs based on usage and make system-wide security upgrades to software.” Not too shabby, and it thankfully doesn’t mention THE CYBER.

How to eat (Hill Country) BBQ

  • Order a plate - two meats (always brisket if it's your first time, then lady's choice), beans, Cole slaw. I’d skip the bread, but load up on onions, and pickles if they’re you’re thing
  • Eat all the BBQ.
  • Eat with your fingers.
  • Don't put sugar on your meat.
  • Don’t tell people how to eat BBQ, or argue about dry rubs and sauce. Just eat.

  • Now that we know they generated $1.1bn in revenue in CY2017 (with -10% op margins, translating to a loss of $111.7m and actual cash flow)…we should probably contemplate how they fit in.
  • 451 estimates a valuation at $8bn+. More: “Dropbox has taken just over 10 years to go public since its founding in 2007, which we attribute to anxiety over its high private valuation, a sizable profitability gap, and the dour outlook often associated with the EFSS segment.”
  • More from 451: “Its net loss ($111m) shrank by nearly half from 2016 – a faster pace than its topline growth. Its relative sales and marketing costs are lower than most of its peers. The vendor spent 28% of its revenue on sales and marketing – half the level of Box, a fellow FSS compatriot that's half the size as Dropbox." Man, think of the shit-per diem an travel policies for last year.
  • E.g., who knew they were so widely used by normals?! 11m+ paying users, they says. (But, it’s 45 to 1 free to pay.)
  • Do we think GDrive/G Suite is this big? I mean, it must be at least once you throw in Docs and GMail.

  • Pants are sized wrong.
  • DTrace going GPL-compatible
  • Arrested DevOps talking with Andrew Shafer and Bryan Cantrill
  • The ongoing nothingburger of blockchain-beyond-bitcoin:
    • “The only mass-market use of blockchain technology right now is bitcoin, and you can certainly debate just how widespread a market that really is. Lots of people are interested in blockchain’s distributed ledger system as a potential way to cut out the middleman in transactions between manufacturers or retailers and their suppliers, but the number of people actually using blockchain technology for those types of services right now is quite small.”
    • More: “The entire market for blockchain services in 2017 — and not necessarily cloud vendor-provided blockchain services — sits at $708 million, according to a report from WinterGreen Research cited by The Information. By comparison, Gartner said last September that it expects cloud services revenue will have reached $260.2 billion in 2017.”
    • WinterGreen, sittin’ in hot tubs, smokin’ those L’s: “In that report, WinterGreen also predicts astounding growth of 757 percent in that blockchain market by 2024 to $60.7 billion, which is among the most dramatic forward-looking statements I’ve seen in a while.”
  • The concept of the millennial is dead. Time to start complaining and belly-aching about how simpering and fucked up the current generation of The Kids are.

]]> Dropbox made $1.1bn last year, which is mind-blowing. What can we learn from the way Dropbox wiggled it’s way into so many people’s lives (11m paying users, it seems) versus competitors like Box? Well, probably a lot more than where Apple, Spotify, and Dropbox run their stuff in - or out! - of the cloud, a topic we also discuss. Also, sheep-skin shoes are hot, too hot. Also, something about dtrace and zfs, I don’t know - just listen to it.

KublaiKash: RedHat Buys CoreOS

@dgonyeo

  • Price of $250m - “an innovator and leader in Kubernetes and container-native solutions.”
  • $50m in funding, since 2015, but CoreOS was started in 2013.
  • Matt Rosoff: “CoreOS has 130 employee…Docker, meanwhile, has raised more than $240 million.”
  • 451 revenue estimates, July 2017, Jay Lyman: “CoreOS has about 120 employees [up from 75 reported in Sep 2016, “about 30 employees” in April 2015], and estimated annual revenue in the $15-20m range.” Sep 2016 customers: “CoreOS reports more than 1,000 paying customers across its products, with a solid group of CoreOS lightweight Linux clients and a growing number of Quay Enterprise and Tectonic customers.”
  • Plus, Ibid.: “ The company says most revenue is coming from Amazon Web Services deployments, with some bare-metal, VMware and other deployments.”
  • Good perspective on the big picture, from Al & Jay at 451: “Red Hat's efforts will likely be worthwhile because Kubernetes is more than just container management orchestration software and is actually a distributed application framework that is very well timed with enterprise adoption and use of multi and hybrid cloud infrastructures.”
  • Product description from the same: “CoreOS Tectonic wraps services – such as automated operations, application services, governance, monitoring and portability – around the Kubernetes container management and orchestration software. Automated operations have been a key focus of the latest CoreOS Tectonic update, with capabilities such as automated patching, failover and high availability and automated cluster deployment included.”
  • CoreOS describes itself: “CoreOS is the creator of CoreOS Tectonic, an enterprise-ready Kubernetes platform that provides automated operations, enables portability across private and public cloud providers, and is based on open source software. It also offers CoreOS Quay, an enterprise-ready container registry. CoreOS is also well-known for helping to drive many of the open source innovations that are at the heart of containerized applications, including Kubernetes, where it is a leading contributor; Container Linux, a lightweight Linux distribution created and maintained by CoreOS that automates software updates and is streamlined for running containers; etcd, the distributed data store for Kubernetes; and rkt, an application container engine, donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), that helped drive the current Open Container Initiative (OCI) standard.”
  • Synergy Corner! All ‘bout that k8s: “Kubernetes is a leading container orchestration tool for organizations of all sizes, on its way to potentially becoming as ubiquitous as Linux….We are thrilled to continue this mission at Red Hat and work to accelerate bringing enterprise-grade containerized infrastructure and automated operations to customers.” But they also throw in that original mission: “our mission to make the internet more secure through automated operations.”
  • 451: “Red Hat will continue to support CoreOS customers as it integrates Tectonic and other CoreOS technology into its own offerings, primarily OpenShift. Red Hat also indicates it will open-source the Tectonic software as it has with previously acquired technologies.”
  • More on what Red Hat will do with it: “Red Hat intends to leverage the CoreOS Tectonic container stack to bolster and enhance OpenShift and RHEL capabilities. In particular, Red Hat says the deal will help it to improve security of container and cluster deployments, enable portability of container applications across hybrid cloud infrastructures and further drive ease of use and automation in its software.”
  • Combined market-share. This is based off early, CNCF surveys and such, but it’s likely a fine wet-finger-in-the-wind, from The New Stack: “Our analysis of a CNCF survey provides some answers. Out of the 34 CoreOS Tectonic users identified, five also use Red Hat’s OpenShift. Thus, the combined entity would still have just 14% of respondents using it to manage containers. Only 4 percent of Docker Swarm users said they also used Tectonic.”
  • Wut?: “According to a 451 Research Advisors project survey of 201 enterprise IT decision-makers at large container-using organizations in April and May 2017, three-quarters [75%] of them indicated that container management and orchestration software, such as Kubernetes, is sufficient to replace private cloud software, such as OpenStack or VMware. “
  • Bad day for beards.
  • Coté wrote a the first 451 report on them in 2014 - ain’t he precious!
  • The wikibon crew says little revenue traction, and has a diagram.

  • Some contributor boasting:

  • More coverage: The Register, click-slides at CRN.

The Heptio kubernetes distro…or not?
  • Heptio releases it’s managed kubernetes service (I get that right?) - how’d that Bluebox business work out?
  • Or, wait, no: I think in this case, sometimes a distro’s just a distro….plz advise.
  • Official page, with a link to a PDF, even!
  • Multi-cloud positioning (they even italicized it!): “Just as container technology took off in large part to organizations’ move to the cloud, Kubernetes’ continued proliferation can be attributed to the growing importance of multi-cloud. Beyond the threat of lock-in to a single cloud provider — which is real — organizations need the flexibility to deploy applications in the environment where they are best suited. Kubernetes provides the right level of abstraction to deploy applications on a cloud solution and to an environment that looks and behaves the same on-premises.” # TAM: Container Cash Context
  • “451 Research's Market Monitor expects the application container market to be worth $1.6bn in 2018 with a CAGR of 36% through 2021,” Al and Jay in the CoreOS acquisition write-up.
  • Also: We now estimate total app container market revenue at just over $1.1bn for '17, growing at a CAGR of 35% to $1.6bn in '18.

  • And some 451 numbers, from a recent webinar:

  • Narrowing down to “orchestration”:

  • The rest of the taxonomy, numbers not in slides:

AWS snubs healthcare industry
  • Not exactly the intended headline, I know.
  • ”They decided their combined access to data about how consumers make choices, along with an understanding of the intricacies of health insurance, would inevitably lead to some kind of new efficiency — whatever it might turn out to be.” And also speculation of lame things like making booking doctors easier.
  • Just lookin’ to make things cheaper, no big deal.
  • No details, but a theory: “Based on the executives who have been named to top roles at the new company, Jefferies & Co. analyst Brian Tanquilut said there is a good chance it will eventually try to negotiate prices directly with health care providers like hospitals, bypassing companies that act as middlemen.”
  • Ben’s on that aggregation theory shit: ‘The key words there are “commoditize and modularize”, and this is where the option I dismissed above comes into play, but not in the way most think: Amazon doesn’t create an insurance company to compete with other insurance companies (or the other pieces of healthcare infrastructure); rather, Amazon makes it possible — and desirable — for individual health care providers to come onto their platform directly, be that doctors, hospitals, pharmacies, etc…. After all, if Amazon is facilitating the connection to patients, what is the point of having another intermediary? Moreover, by virtue of being the new middleman, Amazon has the unique ability to consolidate patient data in a way that is not only of massive benefit to patients and doctors but also to the application of machine learning.’
  • The upshot of all of this, at the moment, is that there were no details given and much fan-boy speculation typed up. Which is fine, please fix US healthcare.
  • A perfectly done story from NY Times: lots of context, much speculation, and all sorts of input.
Relative to your interests
  • KuCisco - Cisco wants some of that sweet Kubernetes Kash: “The company said the Container Platform takes care of the “setup, orchestration, authentication, monitoring, networking, load balancing and optimization” of containers. Deployment of containers is also simplified through automation, as the platform takes care of the most repetitive tasks in this process. It can also be extended to other important aspects of IT, such as networking, security and more, officials said.”
  • Private cloud boosters have a new URL to point to: “The era of the cloud’s total dominance is drawing to a close.”
  • Sorry to make you look at this guy, but split view on the iPad is pretty cool, email and Newsify works too!

  • Product description from the same: “CoreOS Tectonic wraps services – such as automated operations, application services, governance, monitoring and portability – around the Kubernetes container management and orchestration software. Automated operations have been a key focus of the latest CoreOS Tectonic update, with capabilities such as automated patching, failover and high availability and automated cluster deployment included.”
  • CoreOS describes itself: “CoreOS is the creator of CoreOS Tectonic, an enterprise-ready Kubernetes platform that provides automated operations, enables portability across private and public cloud providers, and is based on open source software. It also offers CoreOS Quay, an enterprise-ready container registry. CoreOS is also well-known for helping to drive many of the open source innovations that are at the heart of containerized applications, including Kubernetes, where it is a leading contributor; Container Linux, a lightweight Linux distribution created and maintained by CoreOS that automates software updates and is streamlined for running containers; etcd, the distributed data store for Kubernetes; and rkt, an application container engine, donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), that helped drive the current Open Container Initiative (OCI) standard.”
  • Synergy Corner! All ‘bout that k8s: “Kubernetes is a leading container orchestration tool for organizations of all sizes, on its way to potentially becoming as ubiquitous as Linux….We are thrilled to continue this mission at Red Hat and work to accelerate bringing enterprise-grade containerized infrastructure and automated operations to customers.” But they also throw in that original mission: “our mission to make the internet more secure through automated operations.”
  • 451: “Red Hat will continue to support CoreOS customers as it integrates Tectonic and other CoreOS technology into its own offerings, primarily OpenShift. Red Hat also indicates it will open-source the Tectonic software as it has with previously acquired technologies.”
  • More on what Red Hat will do with it: “Red Hat intends to leverage the CoreOS Tectonic container stack to bolster and enhance OpenShift and RHEL capabilities. In particular, Red Hat says the deal will help it to improve security of container and cluster deployments, enable portability of container applications across hybrid cloud infrastructures and further drive ease of use and automation in its software.”
  • Combined market-share. This is based off early, CNCF surveys and such, but it’s likely a fine wet-finger-in-the-wind, from The New Stack: “Our analysis of a CNCF survey provides some answers. Out of the 34 CoreOS Tectonic users identified, five also use Red Hat’s OpenShift. Thus, the combined entity would still have just 14% of respondents using it to manage containers. Only 4 percent of Docker Swarm users said they also used Tectonic.”
  • Wut?: “According to a 451 Research Advisors project survey of 201 enterprise IT decision-makers at large container-using organizations in April and May 2017, three-quarters [75%] of them indicated that container management and orchestration software, such as Kubernetes, is sufficient to replace private cloud software, such as OpenStack or VMware. “

  • Multi-cloud positioning (they even italicized it!): “Just as container technology took off in large part to organizations’ move to the cloud, Kubernetes’ continued proliferation can be attributed to the growing importance of multi-cloud. Beyond the threat of lock-in to a single cloud provider — which is real — organizations need the flexibility to deploy applications in the environment where they are best suited. Kubernetes provides the right level of abstraction to deploy applications on a cloud solution and to an environment that looks and behaves the same on-premises.” # TAM: Container Cash Context

There’s also some home automation (IoT!) talk, namely, Coté needs to find the problem this great solution solves.

Pre-roll SDT news & hype Wemo IoT Those chip problems - what would you use them for?
  • What’s this mean?
  • Another Y2K? The world didn’t seem to end, so are we good?
  • The Register coverage, lots of gobbly-gook.
  • TPM estimates cost to IT departments to deal with it.
  • Suspicious stock sale, or maybe he just needed a new winter home.
  • What are people doing with exploits?
More IT spending in 2018, public cloud use growing
  • 451 and IDC have some cloud forecast numbers out.
    • Ent. software growth.
    • Trad’l IT shrinking, but not too fast 451 days private cloud still the winner, but barely.

  • 451 tracks by survey with plans to put workloads across the different types of infrastructure:

  • PaaS in not included (see a recent round-up of PaaS market-sizings, tho), but for 2019: public cloud totals ~37% (or 46.3% if you included hosted), private cloud 53.6%

  • IDC’s tracks hardware spend:

  • Meanwhile, an analyst says Azure had a gain on AWS in Q4: “Amazon Web Services had 62 percent market share in the quarter, down from 68 percent a year earlier, KeyBanc's Brent Bracelin and other analysts wrote in a note on Thursday. Microsoft Azure jumped from 16 percent to 20 percent, and Google's share increased from 10 percent to 12 percent, they said.”

  • Also, more spending forecasts from Gartner:

  • The move to SaaS continuing: “Organizations are expected to increase spending on enterprise application software in 2018, with more of the budget shifting to software as a service (SaaS). The growing availability of SaaS-based solutions is encouraging new adoption and spending across many subcategories, such as financial management systems (FMS), human capital management (HCM) and analytic applications.”

  • Really, doesn’t that make the most sense for where to spend most of your priority? Clears out the under-brush. Perhaps there should be a split between “innovation” (customer IT) and “keep the lights on.” I often think bi-modal got lost in that distinction.

  • Hey, that sounds like Big Data! ‘"Looking at some of the key areas driving spending over the next few years, Gartner forecasts $2.9 trillion in new business value opportunities attributable to AI by 2021, as well as the ability to recover 6.2 billion hours of worker productivity," said Mr. Lovelock. "That business value is attributable to using AI to, for example, drive efficiency gains, create insights that personalize the customer experience, entice engagement and commerce, and aid in expanding revenue-generating opportunities as part of new business models driven by the insights from data."’

  • 451’s surveys show more IT spending too: “fully 50% of the 872 respondents said their company is giving a ‘green light’ for IT spending. That was the highest reading since 2007, and 13 basis points higher than the average survey response for the month of November for the previous five years”

The exciting world of monitoringobservability
  • With Loggly, SolarWinds scoops up another log service: “With the acquisition of Loggly, SolarWinds obtains an asset that was slow in getting started but has hit a patch of growth recently. As of September, we believe the company was on track to finish 2017 with roughly $10m in billings, up from mid-single digits in 2016. Founded in 2009 with a mission of offering a SaaS-based, easy-to-use logging product with helpful visualizations built using advanced analytics, Loggly had raised $47m in venture capital, including a $11.5m series D round in June 2016.” They estimate ~3,000 paying customers.
  • Microsoft gets serious about monitoring, pulling together it’s different things Nancy at 451 reports: “Microsoft's vision is to deliver tools that can offer a holistic view of services to application architects looking to optimize their software; performance information and debugging capabilities for DevOps and ops pros; insight into KPIs for executives; and information about customer usage to product owners. Microsoft doesn't yet have a cohesive offering for all of the above, but it has the pieces to enable it and has begun delivering on some integrations across products.”
  • You may recall that Datadog acquired Logmatic.io back in the Fall.
Relevant to your interests
  • Annual Letter from Planet Earth, Scott Galloway: a pretty good moral tent-pole for tech.
  • Feel like a little kid in the container world? Welcome to the club: “industry adoption more accurately reflected in 451 Research's survey data that pegs adoption at 27 per cent. Of those 27 per cent of enterprises that have container religion, just 52 per cent are running containers in production, according to the same survey. In other words, a mere 13.5 per cent (or so) of enterprises are running containers in production.”
  • Finally, an explanation of that Cisco/Google partnership: “CloudCenter is key to the hybrid cloud partnership that Cisco and Google recently announced, where CloudCenter will be used to integrate Google Cloud Platform services with on-premises datacenters. The integrated offering includes Cisco's Hyperflex hyperconverged infrastructure and Nexus 9k networking. Cisco is also leveraging its networking (CSR) and security (Stealthwatch Cloud) portfolio to ensure a consistent environment across the hybrid cloud.

More IT spending in 2018, public cloud use growing
  • 451 and IDC have some cloud forecast numbers out.
    • Ent. software growth.
    • Trad’l IT shrinking, but not too fast 451 days private cloud still the winner, but barely.

  • 451 tracks by survey with plans to put workloads across the different types of infrastructure:

  • PaaS in not included (see a recent round-up of PaaS market-sizings, tho), but for 2019: public cloud totals ~37% (or 46.3% if you included hosted), private cloud 53.6%

  • IDC’s tracks hardware spend:

  • Meanwhile, an analyst says Azure had a gain on AWS in Q4: “Amazon Web Services had 62 percent market share in the quarter, down from 68 percent a year earlier, KeyBanc's Brent Bracelin and other analysts wrote in a note on Thursday. Microsoft Azure jumped from 16 percent to 20 percent, and Google's share increased from 10 percent to 12 percent, they said.”

  • Also, more spending forecasts from Gartner:

  • The move to SaaS continuing: “Organizations are expected to increase spending on enterprise application software in 2018, with more of the budget shifting to software as a service (SaaS). The growing availability of SaaS-based solutions is encouraging new adoption and spending across many subcategories, such as financial management systems (FMS), human capital management (HCM) and analytic applications.”

  • Really, doesn’t that make the most sense for where to spend most of your priority? Clears out the under-brush. Perhaps there should be a split between “innovation” (customer IT) and “keep the lights on.” I often think bi-modal got lost in that distinction.

  • Hey, that sounds like Big Data! ‘"Looking at some of the key areas driving spending over the next few years, Gartner forecasts $2.9 trillion in new business value opportunities attributable to AI by 2021, as well as the ability to recover 6.2 billion hours of worker productivity," said Mr. Lovelock. "That business value is attributable to using AI to, for example, drive efficiency gains, create insights that personalize the customer experience, entice engagement and commerce, and aid in expanding revenue-generating opportunities as part of new business models driven by the insights from data."’

  • 451’s surveys show more IT spending too: “fully 50% of the 872 respondents said their company is giving a ‘green light’ for IT spending. That was the highest reading since 2007, and 13 basis points higher than the average survey response for the month of November for the previous five years”

The exciting world of monitoringobservability
  • With Loggly, SolarWinds scoops up another log service: “With the acquisition of Loggly, SolarWinds obtains an asset that was slow in getting started but has hit a patch of growth recently. As of September, we believe the company was on track to finish 2017 with roughly $10m in billings, up from mid-single digits in 2016. Founded in 2009 with a mission of offering a SaaS-based, easy-to-use logging product with helpful visualizations built using advanced analytics, Loggly had raised $47m in venture capital, including a $11.5m series D round in June 2016.” They estimate ~3,000 paying customers.
  • Microsoft gets serious about monitoring, pulling together it’s different things Nancy at 451 reports: “Microsoft's vision is to deliver tools that can offer a holistic view of services to application architects looking to optimize their software; performance information and debugging capabilities for DevOps and ops pros; insight into KPIs for executives; and information about customer usage to product owners. Microsoft doesn't yet have a cohesive offering for all of the above, but it has the pieces to enable it and has begun delivering on some integrations across products.”
  • You may recall that Datadog acquired Logmatic.io back in the Fall.

  • Feel like a little kid in the container world? Welcome to the club: “industry adoption more accurately reflected in 451 Research's survey data that pegs adoption at 27 per cent. Of those 27 per cent of enterprises that have container religion, just 52 per cent are running containers in production, according to the same survey. In other words, a mere 13.5 per cent (or so) of enterprises are running containers in production.”
  • Finally, an explanation of that Cisco/Google partnership: “CloudCenter is key to the hybrid cloud partnership that Cisco and Google recently announced, where CloudCenter will be used to integrate Google Cloud Platform services with on-premises datacenters. The integrated offering includes Cisco's Hyperflex hyperconverged infrastructure and Nexus 9k networking. Cisco is also leveraging its networking (CSR) and security (Stealthwatch Cloud) portfolio to ensure a consistent environment across the hybrid cloud. Google's Kubernetes container runtime uses Apigee to consume and manage APIs, as well as Google's range of cloud services, including machine learning and visual recognition.

Survey of predictions from elsewhere

  • Good God, man! - something about the role of AI in appdev.
  • “AIOps” - please, kill me now. (To be fair, I think it down-shifts to ML pretty quick-like. Still)
  • Gartner’s mode-salad: “Through 2020, n-tier bimodal workloads will encompass 50% of existing Mode 1 workloads and 80% of new Mode 2 workloads.”
    • I think this means: “50% of old applications will be n-tier, and 80% of new apps will be n-tier,” where “n-tier” means not “client/server, hosted and peer-to-peer architectures.”
  • Serverless, Gartner: “By 2020, 90% of serverless deployments will occur outside the purview of I&O organizations when supporting general-use patterns.”
  • This decade in kubernetes, Gartner: “By 2020, more than 50% of enterprises will run mission-critical, containerized cloud-native applications in production, up from less than 5% today.”
  • Gartner’s PaaS PDF, someone over there had an SEO-stroke: “Application leaders engaged in digital business transformation must master AI, event-driven design, serverless microservices, IoT and strategic integration to serve their business and customers well. Cloud platform innovation drives business leadership.”
  • A good passage on why private PaaS is hard, from PaaS predictions piece: “These [positive, PaaS] capabilities benefit the organizations and are a positive IT development. But they do not alone amount to a cloud experience. Their challenge is typically organizational. A private cloud requires a division of the IT organization into provider and subscribers, and establishment of a strict separation between them via a cloud services portal and suitable cross-charging model. Without a strict adherence to the isolation of providers and subscribers, there cannot be standardization. The self-service is compromised and without resource use tracking, it is hard to achieve the efficiency of elastic autoscaling and elimination of shelf-ware. In most organizations, the leadership is not committed enough to the vision of private cloud to make the difficult and high-risk investment that can stand up to the right organizational framework, policies and practices. Therefore, these PaaS frameworks have justifed their existence mostly through their support of newer cloud-native development models such as DevOps, rather than cloudiness features.”

AWS re:Invent, day 2
  • Daniel Bryant’s (InfoQ) overview of everything.
  • Alexa for Business
    • “Alexia! Fix multi-organization meeting scheduling!”
    • Watson-lite?
    • There’s a dangerous step infrastructure companies try to make into collab, often. It usually doesn’t work (cf. VMware Project Octopus circa 2011 and the related stuff) but, good luck storming the castle!
  • AWS CTO Defines Well-Architected Cloud Security Best Practices “He noted that at AWS, security will always be his group's number one investment area.” (well, for one, what’s “his group,” for second, I’m guessing they’ll always be spending more on hardware, real-estate, and electricity than the team of people coding group security.)
  • Cloud9 IDE stuff:

This is the last run, so get in there now or you’ll miss your chance to check out SolarWinds Cloud…and get that snazy t-shirt.

This episode is sponsored by SolarWinds Cloud, which just launched AppOptics during AWS re:Invent. In addition to the new converged application tracing and infrastructure monitoring platform, SolarWinds also released significant updates to Papertrail and Pingdom. Together they take a big step forward in advancing its strategy to unify full-stack monitoring across the three pillars of observability on a common SaaS-based platform.

And in case you didn’t make it to Las Vegas, you can still check out AppOptics and get your free launch t-shirt. Just go to www.solarwinds.com/sdt, sign up and be sure to check the details at the bottom.

This week’s exegesis This week in kubernetes
  • Why did kubernetes win? (Nerds like to tinker, Google brand? Did the rest of us just need to buy more native advertising in The New Stack?)
Cisco and Google

  • Not really sure what this Cisco/Google thing is. What does Cisco bring to the table?
  • “Cisco's HyperFlex platform that includes management tools to enforce security and other policies as applications and services are released with greater frequency.”
  • Private cloud bundling of kubernetes, Istio, all the great cloud natives.
  • "This is what we hear customers ask for," Diane Greene.
  • Big picture: what’s Google’s goal here? Is it really as simple as “on-ramp?”
  • Even bigger picture: how did it kubernetes win?
IBM’s private cloud stack

  • So, is the “Blue Mix” brand out the mix?
  • IBM page: “Overview of IBM Cloud Private.” Another announcement overview.
  • “Is built on the latest versions of Kubernetes and Docker” - what that mean?
  • Jeffrey Burt: “IBM Cloud Private can run on a variety of infrastructures, including the vendor’s own mainframe and Power systems, its hyperconverged infrastructure that runs Nutanix software, and IBM Storage’s Spectrum Access solution. In addition, it can run on systems from Dell EMC, Lenovo, Cisco Systems and NetApp, and can be deployed by such VMware, Canonical and other OpenStack distributions as well as bare-metal systems. The private cloud platform also includes such developer services for data analytics as Db2, Db2 Warehouse, PostgreSQL and MongoDB, developer tools like Netcool, UrbanCode, and Cloud Brokerage and open-source management software such as Jenkins, Prometheus, Grafana, and ElasticSearch.”
  • Chris Mellor, The Register:
    • All the great middleware now in (Docker) containers: “IBM has provided containerised versions of WebSphere Liberty and Open Liberty, MQ, and DB2, plus Microservice Builder as software bundle components. For example, Cloud Private for Application Modernization provides Cloud Private capabilities plus WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, MQ Advanced, API Connect Professional, DB2 Direct Advanced and Urban Code Deploy.”
    • Value-prop’in! “The standout aim is to help legacy apps transition to a more cloud-native style of construction and operation so that they can run inside a public cloud-like environment on-premises – private cloud – and connect to and/or be integrated with public clouds in some fashion. The destination in IBM's view, of the evolution of legacy apps is the hybrid cloud with private cloud as a stepping stone.”
    • The white papers also mention “regulated industries” and the like.
    • Goin’ for that enterprise cloud, hey, boy.
  • Also: Coté’s highlights, brief coverage from Tom Krazit at GeekWire.
  • An oral history of “bursting”: from 2010 to 2017.
Congress now follows you
  • Kind of a dick move to not send the CEOs.
  • Holy Shit! “Revealing exactly what was smeared all over the internet during the 2016 elections would, we reckon, be like opening Pandora's box: it would allow citizens to join the dots between Kremlin-crafted lies, the gradual acceptance of those lies online, the discussion and even promotion of said lies on mainstream news networks, resulting in, presumably, dozens of clips of senators responding with indignation about made-up information. In short, everyone is going to look like a chump if it turns out everything argued over last year was based on nothing but Kremlin-devised myths and urban legends. Rumors, in other words, designed to destabilize American politics and perhaps install a preferred candidate in the White House.”
  • Looks like my rep has been keeping up on Ben Thompson: ‘Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) asked: "Why should you be treated any differently to the press?" All three California outfits responded with a version of the fact that they are "platforms" and not publishers, that their content is user-created, and that they protect people's right to free speech and expression. Cornyn made it clear he was not persuaded. "They may be a distinction lost on most of us," he said.’
  • Speaking of…Ben nails the analysis:
    • “Facebook served [an estimated] 276 million unique ads per quarter, and my entire point was the same as Kennedy’s: there is no way that Facebook could ever review every ad, much less investigate who is behind them, without completely ruining their revenue model.”
    • ‘What this hearing highlighted, though, is the degree to which the position of Facebook in particular has become more tenuous. The fact of the matter is that Facebook (and Google) is more powerful than any entity we have seen before. Magnifying the problem is that, over the last year, Facebook has decided to “take responsibility”, and what is that but a commitment to exercise their control over what people see?’
  • Tech industry doesn’t think/care about the effects of their products

]]> This week, if you can stand it, we talk about why kubernetes won (no solid conclusions are reached), the announcement around Cisco and Google, and IBM’s new private cloud stack, “IBM Cloud Private.”

This week’s exegesis This week in kubernetes
  • Why did kubernetes win? (Nerds like to tinker, Google brand? Did the rest of us just need to buy more native advertising in The New Stack?)
Cisco and Google

  • Not really sure what this Cisco/Google thing is. What does Cisco bring to the table?
  • “Cisco's HyperFlex platform that includes management tools to enforce security and other policies as applications and services are released with greater frequency.”
  • Private cloud bundling of kubernetes, Istio, all the great cloud natives.
  • "This is what we hear customers ask for," Diane Greene.
  • Big picture: what’s Google’s goal here? Is it really as simple as “on-ramp?”
  • Even bigger picture: how did it kubernetes win?
IBM’s private cloud stack

This week’s exegesis

We’ll be looking at The Four this week in the exegesis podcast. Coté is vacillating between upset and ¯_(ツ)_/¯

$1 Class-action settlements
  • Got my Apple iBooks pay-day!
  • It was $1.14.
  • For $1.14, I don’t think any sort of crime was committed. Coffee costs triple that (double if you shop around). Sounds like a big waste of time and money.
  • Did I ever tell you about that refund gift card from T-Mobile I got? For 3 cents? What the fuck I do with that?
Soon we’ll all bow to kubernetes
  • Docker adds in support, official web-page with burger and brief value-props, and over at The New Stack.
  • Now we can all just start The Battle of Death by a Thousand Value-props. E.g., hittin’ up that security angle hard-core, talking about easily migrate-n-save for existing apps.
  • Dave Bartoletti, Forrester: ‘said it's clear that Kubernetes has won at the orchestration layer. "There's too much mindshare around it," he said in a phone interview with The Register. "There are too many developers who just want this.”’…”Bartoletti said he expects vendors will try to move up the stack by providing security, integration, workflow, and managed services. He said Docker now will be free to focus on trying to be the best container platform for enterprises.”
  • Looks like Bartoletti was the analyst sent around, he shows up in other coverage.
  • Derrick Harris’s take: “The problem is that it’s difficult to make enterprise sales when users want open source at the lower layers and to pay (real money, at least) at layers they deem more strategic. If that’s Kubernetes, then Docker either needs to support it commercially, or let someone else take all the revenue from the orchestration layer up while Docker keeps on spending money to keep the free part of the puzzle chugging. By supporting Kubernetes as part of Docker Enterprise, it now can make the argument that nobody understands containers better than Docker does, and there’s now no real reason to not pay for its enterprise version.”
  • MTA IN DA HIZ-OUSE!
    • “We’ve seen 100 percent success rate for applications that meet our criteria across hundreds of Java and .NET applications. Customers are able to see these results in five days or less.
    • “Johnston added that some customers are able to double the release frequency of their software and cut total cost of ownership by 50 percent.”
    • Snoopy on that shit: “MetLife applied this modernization pattern in one day to their Java application. They were able to look across their portfolio and identify 600 other applications that fit this pattern, for a 66 percent savings on total cost of ownership. That nets out to millions of dollars at MetLife. They have over 6,000 applications they want to apply this to.”
  • Meanwhile, earlier this month, more for the whale: “[Docker] has been putting together a $75 million funding round, which would bring the total amount of money raised by the company to $255 million.”

Do people actually do the DEV-ops? Chef launches Habitat Builder SaaS We all succumbing to the cloud-native, even Oracle CF Summit EU
  • Round-up press release - mostly more on kubernetes in the Cloud Foundry world. Some Istio mentioning, adding legitimacy to that effort; see Istio discussion in episode #96.
  • James “my flight got canceled” Governor coverage:
    • “enterprises now account for more than 40% of Cloud Foundry’s membership”
    • “Kubernetes too is seeing plenty of tyre kicking, but nowhere near the level of enterprise commitment [to Cloud Foundry] at this point.”
    • “54% of Cloud Foundry target Amazon Web Services as a platform, that 40% of users are targeting VMware vSphere certainly [i]s” - I assume this is across all distros and OSS, which makes sense. In Pivotal land, it’s mostly on on-premises VMware, last I checked.
  • Habitat and Cloud Foundry
Programming Languages and Code Quality
  • Large-scale overview of GitHub projects, their languages and their bug reports
  • “The data indicates that functional languages are better than procedural languages; it suggests that disallowing implicit type conversion is better than allowing it; that static typing is better than dynamic; and that managed memory usage is better than unmanaged. Further, that the defect proneness of languages in general is not associated with software domains.”
Docker as a cost-cutter
  • Their CEO says you can slash costs by 50%.
  • Meg Whitman says it’s more like 40%.
  • But partners make $7 off of every $1 of Docker spend - does that math work? Scenario:
    • I used to pay $2 for VMware, now I pay $1 for Docker (50% reduction).
    • But it costs me $7 to get there, giving me a one time payment of net $8, and, hopefully, just $1 a year after that? (Never mind opex vs. capex GAAP-crap.)
    • So, then: after 4+ years I’ll start saving money? (with VMware, I would have paid $2/yr., so $8 total, and with Docker over that four year period I pay $8 first year, $1 next three years, so $11 total - hrmm..where’s Excel when you need it?)
  • Follow-up from 2011: so, Docker really is about replacing VMware…?
  • Overall, this interview with Docker’s CEO is good stuff for industry watchers. It didn’t occur to Coté that the former CEO of Concur would know, like, every single CFO and CEO at G2000 companies.

  • Overall, this interview with Docker’s CEO is good stuff for industry watchers. It didn’t occur to Coté that the former CEO of Concur would know, like, every single CFO and CEO at G2000 companies.

Also, the tragic story of airline and hotel upgrades, like pearls to tired business travelers.

Misc. Now you can buy kubernetes from Dell

  • VMware/Pivotal/Google make a kubo distro. Uses BOSH, NSX, and kubo to setup clusters. Will run on vSphere and Google Cloud, promises to work with other Google Cloud services, be continuously updated to be compatible with GCE containers. Also, VMware storage services and comparability with VMware systems management tools.
  • El Reg coverage, and also from The New Stack.
  • TPM: “The private PKS stack will use vSAN for storage, vRealize Automation for orchestration and governance, vCloud Director for provisioning, and vRealize Operations for monitoring. (So, in theory, one could run the PKS stack on the AWS cloud slices that VMware has partnered with Amazon to create, effectively creating a clone of GKE to run on AWS bare metal iron. . . .)”
  • More laundry listing of the parts from Google, that is, Google Cloud services you can use in a PKS environment: BigQuery, Bigtable, Spanner, Storage, SQL, Pub/Sub, Vision API, Speech API, Natural Language API, Translate API.
  • A list of capabilities from Cornelia’s(?) talk, and what BOSH does (and, thus, does in k8 management).
  • Use it for: “PKS™ is ideal for workloads like Spark and ElasticSearch, and when you need access to infrastructure primitives. Further, use PKS for apps that require specific co-location of container instances, and for those that need multiple port binds.”
    • The Pod affinity thing here is for when you want to run multiple things grouped together, like with Spark, Elastic Search, etc. where you the different things go together.
  • More value-props’ing:
    • i.e., kubernetes on it’s own is hard.
    • As Ramji points out, PKS means you’ll get a consistent, standardized kubernetes/container technology across the Dell Technologies portfolio.
    • Watters lays it out.
  • Positioning: guidance seems to be that PKS is mostly for large organizations, “enterprises.”
  • PKS to GA in 2017Q4, pricing then too.
  • Diagram here:.
  • Some vendor exec story-time here, and Pivotal blog post.
  • So, you can run PCF and PKS side-by-side.
  • See longer explanation from Chad Sakac:
    • “historically, [Dell Technologies’] point of view on the container/cluster manager abstraction ecosystem wasn’t clear”
    • See also this pro'er diagram.
    • Lots of emphasize on a unified, compatible approach/GTM: “We now have a Cloud Native/Digital Transformation stack where there is a SINGLE target we are furiously running towards now as VMware, Pivotal, and Dell EMC – no mis-alignment, no differences in PoV. “
  • Market context:
    • You may recall Coté’s summary of the CoreOS commissioned 451 survey, which linked to a 2016(?) Gartner survey where 18% of respondents had containers in production, with 4% being “significant production”
    • That CoreOS/451 survey had a very important footnote: the survey respondents were already running containers already. It was more about which container orchestration platforms they liked.
    • It was hard to do conclusive ranking of container orchestrators since people were using multiple ones. But, if you lump together CoreOS’s kubernetes distro with generic kubernetes, kubernetes wins out over Docker Swarm, 49% vs. 36%.
    • Meanwhile: “By 2020, 50%+ of global enterprises will be running containerized applications in production, up from <20% today.”
  • RedMonk’s “developers are the kingmakers” theory, more.
SDDC on VMware
  • Run the VMware stack on AWS, out of beta: “For the IT and software development sectors, the deal means that VMware mainstays such as all its software-defined data center ware—vCenter, NSX, vSphere, VSAN and others—will run on AWS instead of VMware's own cloud.”
  • Pricing?
  • ”The three-year contract costs $109,366 per host, which would save about 50% compared to the on-demand hourly billing rate, according to VMware. Another program can cut costs by up 25% based on their on-premises VMware product licenses, as long as those on-premises products remain active…. There are separate charges for IP and data transfers, as the standard AWS egress fees still apply. Each host has 2 CPUs, 36 cores, 72 hyper-threads, 512 GiB RAM and local flash storage.” - ”the estimated total cost of ownership for VMware Cloud on AWS is up to $0.09 per VM per hour, according to VMware”
  • More pricing info from TPM: “The base on demand price for this server is $8.3681 per hour, which works out to around $6,109 per month.”
  • Cloud-context, from Derrick Harris: “Look at the companies’ most-recent fiscal years—2016—during which VMware grew about 9 percent to just over $7 billion in revenue, while AWS grew about 45 percent to more than $12.2 billion in revenue. It’s on pace for about $16 billion in revenue in 2017.”
  • And, more from Derrick on public cloud companies ever elusive quest to grab on-premises workloads and revenue: “There will continue to be a lot of big workloads running inside company data centers. If AWS and Google really want a shot at owning them, they’ll probably need to get their hands (and code) a little dirty by going to where those applications live and showing there’s a better way of doing things.”
  • It makes you wonder if a strategy for public cloud companies going behind-the-firewall is just wishful projection on the on-premise set’s part. 451 surveys a predicting that by 2019, 60% of work-loads will run on cloud technologies (across public, hosted, and private), with under 25% on private cloud (hosted/managed and on-premises).
VMworld, in general
  • Round-up of news from Larry Dignan - lot’s of security stuff, of which Coté has no clue. And, of course, the VDI/desktop stuff. It’s like the old Project Octopus era vision of VMware.
  • Delving into VMware financials, and some product portfolio strategy typing.
  • VIO, VMware’s OpenStack distro has a few production users, but, “for the most part customers are deploying it for their development and test environments, where programmers want to embrace OpenStack and the IT managers want to keep everything on a VMware substrate”
  • VIO pricing: “The other thing that is new with VIO 4.0 is that it is no longer free. Starting with this release, VIO will cost $995 per server socket in a Datacenter Edition, but customers who are using VIO in conjunction with the vRealize management suite will be able to get it for $495 per socket. That is just the price of the perpetual license; reckon another 18 percent or so on top of that for annual support.”
  • Chad Sakac explains all the stacks, how it does hybrid cloud, etc.

]]> It’s VMworld this week, so there’s fresh news from the Dell Technologies universe to sort through. VMware releases it’s SDDC on AWS scheme and Pivotal announces its container service/stack, Pivotal Container Service (PKS). We discuss both, including a meandering overview of what PKS is and some theory about what enterprises actually want with all that VMware in public cloud. Also, the tragic story of airline and hotel upgrades, like pearls to tired business travelers.

Misc. Now you can buy kubernetes from Dell

  • VMware/Pivotal/Google make a kubo distro. Uses BOSH, NSX, and kubo to setup clusters. Will run on vSphere and Google Cloud, promises to work with other Google Cloud services, be continuously updated to be compatible with GCE containers. Also, VMware storage services and comparability with VMware systems management tools.
  • El Reg coverage, and also from The New Stack.
  • TPM: “The private PKS stack will use vSAN for storage, vRealize Automation for orchestration and governance, vCloud Director for provisioning, and vRealize Operations for monitoring. (So, in theory, one could run the PKS stack on the AWS cloud slices that VMware has partnered with Amazon to create, effectively creating a clone of GKE to run on AWS bare metal iron. . . .)”

Traveling to China
  • Coté is a terrible work-trip tourist.
  • AA 263, DFW to PEK, seat 19K. Exit row seat is good, but the front part of the airplane looked good too (rows 8 to 13?).
  • Pack some breakfast tacos.
  • This VPN situation is a mess, rather, I didn’t prepare correctly. Sometimes Cloak works, sometimes it doesn’t. LTE seems better than hotel wifi, but the speeds are high.
Amazon Whole Foods update
  • All done on Monday, August 28th. See NY Times article as well.
  • John Mackey interview.
  • Cheaper private label (I think they were top three or five sold in US).
  • Return items in Amazon lockers.
  • Cheaper groceries is cool, but for us, the interesting/instructive things to watch will be how Whole Foods goes full on digital transformation (or, even more eyebrow raising, does not!).
  • Will they move everything to AWS?
  • true Omni-channel and digital madness.
  • Alexa: ”You look fat in that t-shirt, Michael, would you like me to order you some organic kale smoothies from Whole Foods?”
  • Also, the potential for a culture clash seems high.
  • As a side-effect, expect grocers to be trying out new computer stuff more, and observe their experience. How will the razor thin margin set cope with Amazon who’s been consistently rewarded for loosing money?
  • Walmart and Google Hub thing, Andrew on the AI winter.
The Undying J(2)EE Kubernetes at GitHub
  • Just a few bash scripts, eh? Here, hold my beer.
  • Real world discussion about moving one of their most popular services to Kubernetes. Sounds like the real deal, but there are a few bumps in the road. # PE to do 25% of tech M&A
  • At least the analysis confirms this notion.
  • That said, the underlying numbers are weird: “Between direct acquisitions and deals done by portfolio companies, PE firms are on pace to purchase roughly 900 tech companies in 2017.”
  • Who exactly are these 900 tech companies?
  • Speaking of, a PE firm bought ThoughtWorks.
  • ICO stuff, Coté is confused.
BONUS LINKS! Not covered in show.

Alibaba Dwarfs Amazon

  • That’s a lot of revenue growth.
  • Not on the cloud computing side yet, but definitely on the retail side.
  • Coté: what’s the deal with Alipay being so hard to setup for Yankees? They really, really want a bankcard. Also, I don’t speak Chinese.

    • “In 2015 Basho cited more that 200 customers and approximately 120 employees. Basho reports similar numbers this time around, except with a higher average deal size among its customer base. Average deal size is greater than $100,000, with high single-digit-customer deals exceeding $1m in total contract value.

  • Where does Matt Ray find all these stories?

  • SDT Slack
  • “Not all ‘guys.’”
Mid-roll End-roll Up there in New England
  • What is the Baltimore accent?
  • Watching The Keepers, and it’s reminding me of John Water movies, but I can’t figure out the patterns of the accent.
  • Season three of The Wire has samples.
Oracle Enters the OCI-runtime with Railcar - Oracle, the dark-horse of The Container Wars
  • Link
  • Rust! Also Smith and Sidecar
  • Oracle requires joint copyright assignment though…
Azure Stack, coming in September
  • Charges by consumption - how MIPS-y! “Compute charges start at .8 cents per virtual CPU per hour and go up from there, while storage starts at .6 cents per GB per hour. Those charges will be included in customers’ invoices for their overall use of Microsoft’s public cloud platform.”
  • Hardware via partners: “The exact pricing for Azure Stack hardware, including support contracts, will be up to each individual manufacturer. Microsoft is working with Dell EMC, Lenovo, HPE, Cisco, and Huawei to make the hardware available, and the first machines should be available in September.”
  • IDC estimates private cloud HW at $34bn or so runrate (based on 3Q2016 estimates), with 8% q/q growth. So, not too shabby there. This doesn’t include software, Microsoft’s take.
  • Scott Guthrie: “We talked to lots of customers who said, please don’t do that [allow so much customization that it's hard to debug problems]. The model we came up with instead was to work with a large spectrum of hardware providers, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Cisco and Huawei. Those are the five largest server manufacturers in the world. They will have systems that start with three nodes, not massive big purchases, that you can unbox and plug in. And have a fully working cloud in a day or two. Regardless of whom you call, we own the whole solution.”
  • Pivotal Cloud Foundry will run on it
  • Microsoft has a rocky road of delivering on private cloud. But, I’d wager the get it this time.
  • We discussed this on the most recent Pivotal Conversations, along with other delightful ephemera.
K8s Days May Be Numbered
  • Matt Asay strikes again!
  • Funny how OpenStack is now a cautionary tale. See Coté’s weasly, non-position on OpenStack in his May Register column.
  • I thought Cote’ was going to write this one up? (see below)
  • “Whitepaper review” a la The Weeds!
    • You have to be careful how you read that 451 survey.
    • On Asay’s 71%, Coté wrote: On that note, it’s easy to misread the widely quoted finding of “[n]early three-quarters (71 percent) of respondents indicated they are using Kubernetes” as meaning only Kubernetes. Actually, people are using many of them at once. The report clarifies this: “The fact that almost 75% of organizations reported using Kubernetes while the same group also reported significant use of other container management and orchestration software is evidence of a mixed market.”
    • Read: they’re trying everything. Nothing has won yet. Proving Asay’s point, but also defanging his link-bait lead.
    • “It seem far-fetched that Kubernetes could be heading for a fall” - there is no fall to be had because ascension hasn’t yet begin.
    • The core base of 201 people are organizations already using containers, so it doesn’t include organizations not using containers.
    • In a broader survey (where, presumably, not every enterprise was already using containers), of 300+ enterprises, production container use was: 19% in initial production, 8% were in broad production implementation.
    • This isn’t to say there hasn’t been huge growth in this space, but it’s the huge growth of small numbers.
    • This survey (though sponsored by CoreOS - I’m always suspicious of sponsored surveys, having worked on them myself!) is definitely worth paying attention to (as well as ongoing 451 and Gartner work here). Just make sure you read it right and don’t get too excited.
    • See Coté’s Notebook for more.
  • (Related: I’ve been thinking we should do special, “paid members only” [in Patreon?] “whitepaper review” episodes. Because, let’s be honest: only people who liked us enough to pay would be interested in that.)
  • Alright, now some vendor-sports:
    • So, can a vendor be successful if they “chase” the standards? Do you need to be in OpenWhisk, and OCI shit to operate in this space? Do you need to be Java EE compliant?
    • There may be no money in OSS, but maybe it’s the kingmaker, to steal O’Grady’s line.

Meta, follow-up, etc.
  • Where does Matt Ray find all these stories?
  • Patreon for this thing - like anyone who starts these things, I have no idea WTF it is, if it’s a good idea, or if I should be ashamed. Need some product/market fit.
  • SDT Slack
  • “Not all ‘guys.’”
Mid-roll End-roll Up there in New England
  • What is the Baltimore accent?
  • Watching The Keepers, and it’s reminding me of John Water movies, but I can’t figure out the patterns of the accent.
  • Season three of The Wire has samples.
Oracle Enters the OCI-runtime with Railcar - Oracle, the dark-horse of The Container Wars
  • Link
  • Rust! Also Smith and Sidecar
  • Oracle requires joint copyright assignment though…
Azure Stack, coming in September
  • Charges by consumption - how MIPS-y! “Compute charges start at .8 cents per virtual CPU per hour and go up from there, while storage starts at .6 cents per GB per hour. Those charges will be included in customers’ invoices for their overall use of Microsoft’s public cloud platform.”
  • Hardware via partners: “The exact pricing for Azure Stack hardware, including support contracts, will be up to each individual manufacturer. Microsoft is working with Dell EMC, Lenovo, HPE, Cisco, and Huawei to make the hardware available, and the first machines should be available in September.”
  • IDC estimates private cloud HW at $34bn or so runrate (based on 3Q2016 estimates), with 8% q/q growth. So, not too shabby there. This doesn’t include software, Microsoft’s take.
  • Scott Guthrie: “We talked to lots of customers who said, please don’t do that [allow so much customization that it's hard to debug problems]. The model we came up with instead was to work with a large spectrum of hardware providers, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Cisco and Huawei. Those are the five largest server manufacturers in the world. They will have systems that start with three nodes, not massive big purchases, that you can unbox and plug in. And have a fully working cloud in a day or two. Regardless of whom you call, we own the whole solution.”
  • Pivotal Cloud Foundry will run on it
  • Microsoft has a rocky road of delivering on private cloud. But, I’d wager the get it this time.
  • We discussed this on the most recent Pivotal Conversations, along with other delightful ephemera.
K8s Days May Be Numbered
  • Matt Asay strikes again!
  • Funny how OpenStack is now a cautionary tale. See Coté’s weasly, non-position on OpenStack in his May Register column.
  • I thought Cote’ was going to write this one up? (see below)
  • “Whitepaper review” a la The Weeds!
    • You have to be careful how you read that 451 survey.
    • On Asay’s 71%, Coté wrote: On that note, it’s easy to misread the widely quoted finding of “[n]early three-quarters (71 percent) of respondents indicated they are using Kubernetes” as meaning only Kubernetes. Actually, people are using many of them at once. The report clarifies this: “The fact that almost 75% of organizations reported using Kubernetes while the same group also reported significant use of other container management and orchestration software is evidence of a mixed market.”
    • Read: they’re trying everything. Nothing has won yet. Proving Asay’s point, but also defanging his link-bait lead.
    • “It seem far-fetched that Kubernetes could be heading for a fall” - there is no fall to be had because ascension hasn’t yet begin.
    • The core base of 201 people are organizations already using containers, so it doesn’t include organizations not using containers.
    • In a broader survey (where, presumably, not every enterprise was already using containers), of 300+ enterprises, production container use was: 19% in initial production, 8% were in broad production implementation.
    • This isn’t to say there hasn’t been huge growth in this space, but it’s the huge growth of small numbers.
    • This survey (though sponsored by CoreOS - I’m always suspicious of sponsored surveys, having worked on them myself!) is definitely worth paying attention to (as well as ongoing 451 and Gartner work here). Just make sure you read it right and don’t get too excited.
    • See Coté’s Notebook for more.
  • (Related: I’ve been thinking we should do special, “paid members only” [in Patreon?] “whitepaper review” episodes. Because, let’s be honest: only people who liked us enough to pay would be interested in that.)
  • Alright, now some vendor-sports:
    • So, can a vendor be successful if they “chase” the standards? Do you need to be in OpenWhisk, and OCI shit to operate in this space? Do you need to be Java EE compliant?
    • There may be no money in OSS, but maybe it’s the kingmaker, to steal O’Grady’s line.

  • I've seen this hot-dog before.
  • I’ve been doing this since dickity-4
  • I’m sticking with the Mary Meeker slides, you nerds go figure it out
Mid-roll Hot-dog guy in Japan Internet Trends 2017
  • 300 plus slides of charts
  • Computes!
  • Coté’s notebook, summary of summary:
    • Google and Facebook make a lot of ad money.
    • The Kids like using smart phones, the olds like using traditional telephones. One of them will die sooner.
    • Voice, image recognition, etc.
    • China is pretty much a mature market, and it’s huge.
    • India has potential, but doing business there is hard and you need more Internet in a pocket rollout.
    • The public/private cloud debate is still far from over.
    • But, AWS, Microsoft, and Google have pretty much won.
    • Bonus: there’s surprisingly little funding and exits this year.
  • Would Amazon sell some private clouds?
Isotoner and Hephaestus - All the new container orchestration poop
  • Coté: Catching up on all this week's container poop & as always, my first reaction is “oh, I thought the existing stuff did all that already..so."
  • Managed service for Tectonic as a Service - so, keeping your Kubernates cluster software updated? Presumably enforcing config, etc?
    • However, not all done, still working on the complete solution.
    • But, there’s an etcd thing ‘As a first step, Tectonic 1.6.4 will offer the distributed etcd key-value data store as a fully managed cloud service. “It’s the logical one to offer first because it is everything else gets built on it,” Polvi explained. The data store “guarantees that data is in a consistent state for very specific operations,” he said, referring to how etcd can be essential for operations such as database migrations.’
    • Another etcd description: “etcd is a clustered database that prizes consistency above partition tolerance… Interestingly, at Google, chubby is most frequently accessed using an abstracted File interface that works across local files, object stores, etc. The highly consistent nature, however, provides for strict ordering of writes and allows clients to do atomic updates of a set of values.
    • So, you need locks for - dun-dun-dun! - transactions! Queue JP lecturing me in 2002.
  • Then there’s Istio:
    • Istio?!
    • Whao! Check out the exec-pitch: “ Istio gives CIOs a powerful tool to enforce security, policy and compliance requirements across the enterprise.” And Google: “Through the Open Service Broker model CIOs can define a catalog of services which may be used within their enterprise and auditing tools to enforce compliance.”
      • I love their idea of what a CIO does.
    • “An open platform to connect, manage, and secure microservices“
    • SDN++ overlay for container orchestrators from Google, IBM & Lyft - once you control the network with the “data plane,” you add in the “control plane” which allows you to control the flow and shit of the actual microservices.
    • Tackling the “new problems emerge due to the sheer number of services that exist in a larger system. Problems that had to be solved once for a monolith, like security, load balancing, monitoring, and rate limiting need to be handled for each service.”
    • And, you know, all the agnostic, multi-cloud, open stuff.
    • Thankfully, they didn’t use a bunch of garbage, nonsense names for things.
    • Let’s look at the docs (BTW, can you kids start just putting out PDFs instead of only these auto-generated from markdown web pages?):
      • First of all, these are good docs.
      • Monkey-patching for the container era: “You add Istio support to services by deploying a special sidecar proxy throughout your environment that intercepts all network communication between microservices, configured and managed using Istio’s control plane functionality.”
      • The future! Where we all shall live! “Istio currently only supports service deployment on Kubernetes, though other environments will be supported in future versions.”
      • Problems being solved, aka, “ways you must be this tall to ride the microservices ride”: “Its requirements can include discovery, load balancing, failure recovery, metrics, and monitoring, and often more complex operational requirements such as A/B testing, canary releases, rate limiting, access control, and end-to-end authentication.”
      • Also: Traffic Management, Observability, Policy Enforcement, Service Identity and Security.
      • Does it have the part where it reboots/fixes failed services for you?
      • So:
        • you monkey-patch all this shit in (er, sorry, “sidecar”),
        • which controls the network with SDN shit,
        • Istio-Manager + Envoy does all your load-balancing/circuit breaker/canary/AB shit, service discovery/registry, service versioning (i.e., running n+1 different versions of code - always a pretty cool feature), configuring “routes,” what connects to what,
        • I don’t think it provides a service registry/discover service? Maybe just a waffer thin API (“a platform-agnostic service discovery interface”)?
        • Question: what does this look like in your code?
          • The thing 12 factor-style passes a configuration into your actual code. Here, you’re adding a bunch of name/value pairs (which can be nested) and also translating them to the name/value pairs that your code is expecting...on an HTTP call? Executing a command in your container? As ENV vars?
          • And then, I think you finally get ahold of the network to reply back with some HTML, JSON, or some sort of HTTP request by .,
  • So, big questions, aka, Coté mental breakdown that only Matt Ray can cure:
    • Er...so this all really is a replacement for the VMware stack, right? And OpenStack? Or do you still need those. What the fuck is all this stuff? It just installs the Docker image on a server? And then handles multi-zone replication, and making sure config drift is handles (bringing up failed nodes, too)?
    • So, it’s just cheaper and more transparent than VMware?
    • What’s the set of shit one needs? Ubuntu, Moby Engine (?), Moby command line tools, etcd? Actuality kubernetes code? What’s Swarm do? And then there’s monitoring, which according to Whiskey Charity, is all shit, right?
    • Where’ my fucking chart on this shit?
    • Please write two page memo for the BoD by 2pm today.
  • Meanwhile: Oracle’s cool with it, “WTF is a microservice”, compared to SOA/ESB and RESTful, and James Governor tries to explain it all.

    • “The company's suite works with developer tools like subversion and git, CloudBees, Jenkins, Docker, MongoDB, Cloud Foundry, Maven and ant, as well as PaaS and IaaS offerings such as Heroku, Google AppEngine, Red Hat OpenShift and AWS.”
    • Check out the Dell Sputnik call-out: “Rivals to Codenvy include cloud-based development suites Eclipse Orion (open source), Cloud9 IDE and Nitrous.IO. There are other 'cloud IDEs,' including Codeanywhere, CodeRun Studio, Neutron Drive and ShiftEdit. On the developer environment configuration front, Pivotal created and open-sourced a developer and OS X laptop configuration tool called Workstation, and now Sprout. Dell's Project Sputnik is seeking to address similar build environment standup productivity challenges.”

International Travel Trip Report
  • Matt’s Ray’s international travel experience as Platinum.
  • Traveling as a vegetarian.
  • What’s the plan for all the free booze? Bring a flask...
Why Do They Keep Messing With Texas? ChefConf!
  • Round-up from The New Stack
  • More
  • “Continuous automation, when you do it right, is a bridge between your current environment and where you need to go in the future”
  • Chef 13, InSpec cloud profiles, Habitat build service
  • Consolidating under less brands?
  • Configuring the stuff that goes in the containers: “now includes capabilities for security and compliance checking, as well as the ability to further automate the process of assembling and updating container-based applications.”
BONUS LINKS! Not covered in episode.

Mirantis getting out of the (pure) OpenStack game

  • So...Coté was right?!
  • “announced that it will end-of-life Mirantis OpenStack support in September 2019”
  • “it’s important to distinguish between popularity and value. Popular kids in high school aren’t always the ones that end up driving a Ferrari when adults. It’s true that OpenStack is no longer the popular kid; Kubernetes is — and customers often like to go with what’s popular.” - Mirantis CMO Boris Renski

Getting out of VIM

  • Link
  • “In the last year, How to exit the Vim editor has made up about .005% of question traffic: that is, one out of every 20,000 visits to Stack Overflow questions. That means during peak traffic hours on weekdays, there are about 80 people per hour that need help getting out of Vim.”
  • What’s up with Ukraine?

Mid-roll The news from Australia
  • Y'all gotta get your avocado pricing under control. $1.50 for a large one is about the ceiling 'roind here.
  • As ever, the first step of your life-plan should be to become independently wealthy in your early 20s. Go work in a coal-mine otherwise.
  • Also, pro-tip: if you're rich, your default position on social commentary should generally by STFU.
  • Matt needs a driver's license
Health-insurance choices
  • HSA is probably a good idea.
  • Better get a FAX machine.
  • This is a trigger issue for Coté, beware.
Donnie Berkholz at Carlson Wagonlit
  • He Tweetered it: "to help them with their DevOps journey."
  • He's a VP! - exec level #AchievementUnlocked
  • He says: " With an all-new CEO and CPO/CTO, we're making a major pivot to become a software company focused on travel, rather than a travel agency with some apps."
  • It'll be fun to see (hopefully!) what his group actually procures, uses, and does.
  • He's already on that "welcome to enterprise software" shit: "Current status: Hating on vendors that don't publicly post pricing."
  • Conference, travel, expenses? - like Concur/Amex travel?
  • I recall using them for a lot of travel in the analyst days.
  • Checks out: "Headquartered in Amsterdam, the company reported $23 billion in total transaction values[2] in 2016 and recorded almost 59 million transactions. The company has over 18,000 employees across nearly 150 countries."
  • Their owner, Carlson (yes, of hotel fame, but also used to own things like TGI Friday's [from 1975 to 2014]) is in MN.
Canonical Eying an IPO?
  • Coté's notebook on the topic.
  • Link: "in the last year, Ubuntu cloud growth had been 70 percent on the private cloud and 90 percent on the public cloud." In particular, "Ubuntu has been gaining more customers on the big five public clouds." 5?
  • Still, there is "no timeline for the IPO." First, Shuttleworth wants all parts of the slimmed down Canonical to be profitable. Then "we will take a round of investment." After that, Canonical will go public.
  • The S1 filing is going to be fascinating.
  • Mirantis still into OpenStack, Coté was straigh-up wrong: "The new platform allows users to deploy multiple Kubernetes clusters side-by-side with OpenStack — or separately."
CyberArk Buys Conjur
  • "DevOps" is used 19 times in the press release.
  • Coté: so, is this like "vault" type stuff in cloud-native land?
  • Coté talked with a CyberArk SE at DevOpsDays Austin, they had a booth!
  • 451 report from Garrett Bekker:
    • "privileged access management (PAM)"
    • "Conjur [founded in 2013] marks CyberArk's third acquisition, following the 2015 pickups of endpoint security vendor Cybertinel for an undisclosed sum and Windows least privileged management and application whitelisting firm Viewfinity for $30m. CyberArk paid $42m in cash and we estimate a multiple slightly north of 10x trailing revenue, potentially boosted by a competitive bid. Once the transaction closes, 20 Conjur employees will join CyberArk."
    • Conjur's "three core products are Privileged Access Management for managing 'secrets' such as SSH keys, Dynamic Traffic Authorization for controlling and brokering access to resources, and Compliance Monitoring for real-time reporting."

GNU GPL Stands Up In Court

  • Keith Collins, Quartz write-up.
  • Appears willful, embedding GPL software implicitly accepts the license.
  • It's over: "Ghostscript—an interpreter for the PostScript language and the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF)." It has dual-licensing, a la MySQL and friends.
  • "Hancom issued a motion to dismiss the case on the grounds that the company didn't sign anything, so the license wasn't a real contract."
  • "[Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley] denied the motion, and in doing so, set the precedent that licenses like the GNU GPL can be treated like legal contracts, and developers can legitimately sue when those contracts are breached."
  • This has come up for Artifex as well, back in 2008.
  • Not sure what this lawyer-cant is, but: "A few aspects of the decision are of particular interest to the open source community. For example, Hancom argued that Artifex could not plead breach of contract for violation of GPL and could not request specific performance of the terms of GPL. Hancom also argued that copyright damages were not available because the GPL grants royalty-free rights."
  • More: "Here, in denying a motion to dismiss, the District Court only holds that the claims may proceed on the theories enunciated by Artifex, not necessarily that they will ultimately succeed."
  • More history and context from Kieren McCarthy, at The Register, which Coté didn't really read.

Plus, APAC business travel. 1:01:47 true There's much news in the container world with DockerCon and Red Hat having had conferences, plus Docker gets a new CEO. We also do a hindsight analysis of what wrong with the losers of the Cloud Wars. And, as always, recommendations from the three of us.

Mid-roll Matt Ray’s APAC Biz Travel Fun
  • 5 different airlines in a month.
  • Emirates is the best.
  • This is why we can’t have nice things - American Airlines raises pay.
Red Hat. 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.
  • Coté’s Notebook on Moby and such
  • Coté's Notebook on Docker's new CEO.

Mid-roll K8s Operators Azure Container Service, now with K8s Docker in Production: A History of Failure
  • From this dude’s perspective: a failure of product management and stable releases.
  • Bugs, documentation spotty, cleanup scripts, kernel support (Debian!?), aufs & overlay & overlay2, 7-hour outage with no post-mortem
  • “Docker only moves forward and breaks things”
  • “The docker hype is not only a technological liability any more, it has evolved into a sociological problem as well.”
  • A retort… that mostly agrees
  • “boring tech is what makes money” shiny tech makes resumes?
Mesosphere
  • Jay Lyman on the momemtum: “Mesosphere does not disclose its number of paying clients, but says it has dozens of large enterprise customers, its primary target. The company says its experience supporting software deployments in production is among its key differentiators, helped by the use of Apache Mesos by companies such as Twitter, Netflix, Airbnb, PayPal and Yelp, which was featured in a 451 User Deployment Report. Mesosphere says its focus is customer deployments of 500-1,000 nodes per day in production. It also says the bulk of its customers are licensees with professional services accounting for less than 10% of its clients, which tend to move to its subscription software.”
TrumpTech, aka, “Putting the 400 lbs hackers on diets.”
  • Turns out there is some marginally clear policy, just not McKinsey title mode versus white papers.
  • Jonathan Shieber@Tech Crunch: "The biggest question facing millions of Americans this Wednesday is: just how much of what Donald Trump said on the campaign does he intend to actually try to make happen." (For example, Korea.)
  • Dave Lee, at the BBC has a good laundry list: “Uncertainty, frustration and an increased fragility for the global home of tech innovation. Mr Trump certainly won't want to go down as the president who destroyed Silicon Valley, but the concern here is that of the few policies that have been explained in detail, some seem directly at odds with each other.”
  • 10% repatriation program - tech companies have tons of cash abroad:
  • Historic rates: “At the highest tax rate, corporations must pay 35% to repatriate capital, minus local taxes charged by countries in which the funds are held.”
    • Hardware: “AAPL (93% of $230bln), CSCO (91% of $64.6B), IBM ($8.2B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but note 58% of earnings are from non US operations), HPE ($10.0B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but 65% of earnings are from non US operations), HPQ ($5.6B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but 65%-70% of earnings are from non US operations), JNPR (94% of $3.2B).”
    • Software: “Specifically, some of the mid and large cap companies that have large cash balances “trapped” offshore are likely to benefit from being able to return a portion of this cash to shareholders. We note companies with high gross cash balances trapped offshore include: ADBE (85% of $4B – from 2015 10-K), ADSK (86% of $2.1B), CA (76% of $2.7B), CTXS (80% of $2.45B), FTNT (38% of $1.2B), ORCL (76% of $56B – pre-N), MSFT (96% of $113B – pre-LNKD purchase), RHT (42% of $2.0B), SYMC (93% of $5.6B – post-BC), VMW (77% of $7.5B), VRSN (68% of $1.9B). We believe the chances increase of a larger share repurchase or (lesser chance) dividend from these companies.”
  • Apple & Amazon are not in a good situation - they’ll be a good test of WTF happens. Meanwhile, tech stocks dropping a bit.
  • Ovum has a shit ton of quick analysis, all free:
    • Fear of US public cloud companies, globally. Remember the freak-out from NSA stuff? Same idea. I think the Gemans got over it.
    • Outsources:
    • “A massive curtailing of H-1B visas, for example, will mean providers will need to make immediate shifts in what they’re able to offer customers locally, unless or until they’re able to compensate with talent.”
    • “For providers, there’s also the unanswered question of the impact on US government spending.”
    • [Education](https://www.ovum.com/trumping-expectations-now-us-public-sector-2/ - some proposals for de-centralizing, meaning fragmentation of IT spend.
    • Government talent, regulations, and spending - “If there is a large exodus of high-caliber and skilled staff, how will departments fill the gap? It also raises the question of funding for programs aimed at modernizing tech in the federal government such as F18 and FedRAMP. Trump might reduce the barriers to swapping out tech and push down expenditure that way. Certainly, the high cost and length of time needed to get Authority to Operate (ATO) under FedRAMP has been a barrier to uptake.”
    • Telcos - other than him stating he’d stop the AT&T/TimeWarner merger, telco stuff is very unclear. No one’s sure what the traditional Republican +/- Trump equals, or what the formula is.
  • M&A from Brenon@451: “Chinese buyers probably won't be shopping as freely in the US in the coming years.” They spent $14bn this year, I think. Chinese buyers have recently picked up Ingram Micro, which swings nearly $50bn worth of tech gear and services each year, 25-year-old printer maker Lexmark and even a majority stake in the gay dating app Grindr."

OpenStack Anyone?

  • There’s a Summit going on in Barcelona 35% annual growth sounds good
  • With friends like these…: “Ubuntu founder and product lead at Canonical Mark Shuttleworth says he feels validated by his earlier claims that the expansion of OpenStack projects – known as the ‘big tent’ approach - would collapse and that the community needs to focus on its core services.”
  • Bullshit as a Service: “My rule of thumb is if you're not [creating] virtual networks, compute or disks, and you can't survive on AWS, you are never going to survive on OpenStack. That's the bullshit as a service story.”
  • OTH, 🤔: "If you do these things the old fashioned way with Puppet, Chef and Ansible, they can be incredibly expensive because now you need the experts for everything," he says. "If you do them with Juju and Charms, you're sharing the cost of operational code with everybody else using those Charms."
  • Meanwhile: 451 says “OpenStack revenues to grow at a 35% CAGR and exceed $5bn by 2020.” See chart in my newsletter from this week.

  • Economist on Private Equity
  • “private equiteers”
  • “The fees they pay each time they buy or sell a company provide a fifth of the global banking system’s revenues from mergers and acquisitions.”
  • “This is a particular issue for pension funds, which often need to earn 7% or 8% to meet their obligations.”

Microsoft cloud annualized run rate hits $13bn in strong first quarter

IBM

Stackanetes as a Product?

VMware & AWS: Harder Than it Looks

  • Former VMware/EMC exec, now at Oracle.
  • “hope is not a strategy.”
  • “VMware wants the world to use their stack, AWS wants the same for their technology. Not exactly what I would call a long-term stable situation.”

Twitter going to sell:

  • The rumors
  • “I still think Alphabet makes for the most logical acquirer of Twitter”
  • Dark Horse: Apple.
  • Really Dark Horse: IBM.

This Week in Tech PE: HPE Spins off Software

  • They got divested
  • “HPE will be retaining tools that support the company’s cloud and infrastructure businesses but will be spinning off tools for application delivery management, big data, enterprise security, information management, governance and IT operations management.”
  • From what I know of HPE, this seems to be overlapping. I’d love a list of “stays vs. goes”
  • Q3 2017, and you thought Dell/EMC was slow
  • Where does this leave HP? Will they acquire more SW or stay a “systems” company.
  • It makes you realize how “small” their SW group was.
  • Coté’s notebook on this topic.
  • Also, Thoma Bravo says it gets, like, 20-45% returns on assets it takes private.

  • Nippers - "Nippers learn about safety at the beach. They learn about dangers such as rocks, and animals (e.g. the blue-ringed octopus), and also about surf conditions, such as rip currents, sandbars, and waves. Older Nippers also learn some basic first aid and may also learn CPR when they reach the age of 13."

Can someone explain this “Docker forking” hoopla?

  • Coté’s write-up.
  • Docker Inc. doesn’t want to be a commoditized building block From a Red Hat person: “The conflict started to escalate earlier this summer, when Docker Inc used its controlling position to push Swarm, it’s own clone of Kubernetes-style container orchestration, into the core Docker project, putting the basic container runtime in a conflict with a notable part of its ecosystem. Docker Inc. then went on to essentially accuse Red Hat of forking Docker - at the Red Hat Summit no less. After that, Docker Inc’s Solomon Hykes came out strongly against the efforts to standardize the container runtime in OCI - an initiative his company co-founded.”

They learn about dangers such as rocks, and animals (e.g. the blue-ringed octopus), and also about surf conditions, such as rip currents, sandbars, and waves. Older Nippers also learn some basic first aid and may also learn CPR when they reach the age of 13."

  • Docker Inc. doesn’t want to be a commoditized building block From a Red Hat person: “The conflict started to escalate earlier this summer, when Docker Inc used its controlling position to push Swarm, it’s own clone of Kubernetes-style container orchestration, into the core Docker project, putting the basic container runtime in a conflict with a notable part of its ecosystem. Docker Inc. then went on to essentially accuse Red Hat of forking Docker - at the Red Hat Summit no less. After that, Docker Inc’s Solomon Hykes came out strongly against the efforts to standardize the container runtime in OCI - an initiative his company co-founded.”

    • Joyent notes
    • Coverage from Venturebeat
    • "Until today, we lacked one thing. We lacked the scale required to compete effectively in the large, rapidly growing and fiercely competitive cloud computing market. Now, that changes,"
    Microsoft acquires LinkedIn
    • Press Release from Microsoft
    • M&A Synergies Theoretical WTF'ing:
      • Slideshare, extended to all Office formats.
      • Login with LinkedIn + AD = SSO won. Also: "Massively scaling the reach and engagement of LinkedIn by using the network to power the social and identity layers of Microsoft's ecosystem of over one billion customers. Think about things like LinkedIn's graph interwoven throughout Outlook, Calendar, Active Directory, Office, Windows, Skype, Dynamics, Cortana, Bing and more."
      • 433 million professionals in LinkedIn (from MSFT internal memo).
      • ...but it's probably all the same people, tho.
      • "Along with the new growth in our Office 365 commercial and Dynamics businesses this deal is key to our bold ambition to reinvent productivity and business processes." (MSFT CEO, from MSFT internal memo)
      • Ads and dumb-AI context: "This combination will make it possible for new experiences such as a LinkedIn newsfeed that serves up articles based on the project you are working on and Office suggesting an expert to connect with via LinkedIn to help with a task you're trying to complete. As these experiences get more intelligent and delightful, the LinkedIn and Office 365 engagement will grow. And in turn, new opportunities will be created for monetization through individual and organization subscriptions and targeted advertising." (MSFT CEO, from MSFT internal memo)
      • LinkedIn growth since Dec, 2008: "Our team has grown from 338 people to over 10,000, our membership from 32M to over 433M and our revenue from $78M to over $3 billion." (MSFT internal memo).
      • Others from memo: Lydia training inline in MSFT apps; paid content in MSFT apps (a la Spiceworks); HR and recruiting.
    • Deal PR deck - pretty good. I can see how the social graph and all the "semantic web sit" in LinkedIn, crossed with MSFT assets works well.
    • One take on ads, doesn't like the Office angle, cause privacy, but oh wait: Google Apps and GMail
    • It's the 1 dataset MS can keep out of Facebook and Google's hands. https://trackchanges.postlight.com/9-things-microsoft-could-do-with-linkedin-2aec55c2bc72#.iv7cofd13
    • "Microsoft could improve LinkedIn": Microsoft designs for people who have to do boring things with computers in order to make money. It's the 9–5 software vendor.
    • Previous big acquisitions: Nokia for $7.2bn, Skype for $8.5bn, Xamarin for $400m.
    • From 451 M&A coverage:

    • Forgot to talk about this, but here are my notes from the MesosCon presentation by Twitter
    • Former Nimbula founder (Oracle acquisition), early AWS founder.
    • Twitter's kinda big deal, maybe you've heard of them. Over 1000 services manage Twitter, over 1,000,000 cores.
    • http://twitter.github.io
    • Heron is a newly open-sourced replacement for Storm. Supporting all of our own code isn't sustainable, need an open source community.
    • The Ellen Degeneres photo tweet from the 2015 Academy Awards knocked a couple of services over. 25% traffic spike, hit 255k/tweets per second. 2016 Academy Awards had 2x the traffic, no failures.
    • 30,000 node Mesos cluster (probably largest). "We don't like being the biggest of anything, we find the edge cases." 130,000,000 containers launched daily.
    • Some of their acquisitions were in public cloud, they don't move them in-house. They're actually pushing new services out to AWS where they can. Vine, TellApart, Crashlytics, MoPub, BlueFin, etc. Ad-serving is mostly in AWS. Users: Time Warner, Twitter (30,000 host deployment), Apple Siri.

    Cost Cutting Perks in Silicon Valley

    • More from the snack-track files.
    • Employees at Kabam, the online-gaming startup worth $1 billion, recently felt like there was a decrease in the number of office snack stands. Although the company denies it, some believe the snack stands are now placed more sporadically in order to reduce the employees' frequency of snack consumption by making it a little harder to get to them.

    No Uber in Austin

    • Brandon sets us straight on the details.
    • Coté defends the uber-haters.

    Will Containers Replace Hypervisors, Almost Certainly Yes

    • TL;DR; is the title :)
    • Randy Bias, the "pets vs. cattle" godfather, makes a strong case for hypervisors being on the way out.
    • Once all the legacy apps are re-written to be in containers (cloud native) or decom'ed (you know, in the future), and we don't want to run multiple OSes (so don't need the driver handling that hypervisors give us)...no need for hypervisors. QED.

    Cloud chief Diane Greene on how Google can beat Amazon and Microsoft

    • A brief interview
    • "Q: How will Google differentiate against AWS and Microsoft? A: Only 5 percent of workloads are in the public cloud. Effectively you're riding another company's innovation curve for free. We've open-sourced a lot of technologies like Kubernetes and TensorFlow. As we add more features, we'll be able to share a lot more strengths with applications." - can OSS be used to attack on-premises cloud?

    Docker Survey out - #WhatDoYouMakeOfThat

    • Get the PDF
    • Respondents are the HN set? - 511 respondents, 59% from software companies, 56% orgs less than 100 employees, 47% devs or dev managers
    • 51% in production
    • "survey respondents reported on average a 13X increase in frequency of software releases."
    • "Because Docker makes it simple and easy to push software out, isolate issues and roll back, over 63% of organizations report a reduction in their MTTR which impacts overall software quality and customer satisfaction."

    Cloud about to get HUGE

    • "CIOs report that 16.2% of workloads are currently running in the public cloud, and that in five years 41.3% of workloads will run in a public cloud. This suggests at least a 20% CAGR in public cloud workloads over the next five years. In our view, a near- tripling of the public-Cloud-based workload mix represents a monumental architectural shift, which shows no signs of abating and is likely to create a major ripple effect across the entire technology landscape." - "Amazon Seeing 'Momentous' Change of Guard as Public Cloud 'Booms,' Says JP Morgan"

    • Full Snack Developer: Old Bay Seasoning on French Fries - that is Coté's new God.

    • Chapters in podcasts. I used Chapter app and it was better than the half-ass results with Fission. But, still, the marks didn't line up perfectly. Computers - amiright? (Don't get me wrong: Fission is awesome, but: really?)
    • We should be in Google Play Podcasts - can someone verify this before they EOL it?
    • I heard that two people have used the code CF16COTE to register for the CF Summit. I'm going to believe they're from the listeners here and not my newsletter. HOW YOU LIKE MY CPM NOW?!
