Key quote (for me)
> Portability and reducing lock-in have been core OpenShift values since we first announced. The truth of the matter is many of our users don't want to be locked in to OpenShift or any PaaS. We don't want them to be locked in either.
Not being tied to infrastructure is a pretty amazing feeling. Being able to switch from my VPS to OpenShift, some other Docker-enabled PaaS, bare metal, EC2, or my internal OpenStack cluster seamlessly offers a tremendous amount of choice.
