In theory, OVF is the 'answer' for Virtual Machines -- but its failure has been in adoption -- if you can't get Amazon and OpenStack to adopt it, what's the point?

Before Rocket/ACI there wasn't even a contender for Containers. Now there is a published spec. Start there. Iterate.

I don't disagree, but OVF is an ANSI[1] & ISO[2] standard. Like you said, Amazon & OpenStack have chosen not to adopt it.

Just goes to show that adopted+working is more important and useful than a published spec.
