First Impressions: Docker for Mac with Kubernetes

Re:First Impressions: Docker for Mac with Kubernetes by Annatar on Tuesday January 09, 2018 @05:01AM (#16104894)

SmartOS runs under any hypervisor, including ones on macOS.

The argument that “far more people use Macs” is therefore completely beside the point.

I myself use macOS too.

The premise of the article is “let’s explore why this matters” but from pure capabilities standpoint, my question remains unanswered: why does it matter if there is SmartOS which doesn’t need any of this?

If I understand correctly, you just want to run a container OS on a hypervisor.

Why is docker for Windows/Mac better? It integrates better, handles directory sharing. Also, it doesn't seem like smartos supports kubernetes.

It doesn’t suppport it because it works differently so it doesn’t need it. The complexity of needing Docker and Kubernetes falls away, although Docker is supported.

This seems like such a tangent to topic at hand. This article is not even about kuberenetes or docker itself.

Then what is the article about? Or was it to serve as propaganda for Docker and Kubernetes... again?
