I agree with you but I don't think we'll have to wait 10 years to see that happening. We're still a fairly small startup but we're transitioning our whole platform to be built around Mesos (and we're definitely not the only ones in that case).

I don't know why many people think that they need to be at datacenter scale computing to benefit from abstractions like Mesos, it's completely wrong imo.

It's quite a big shift in mindset but it makes the life of everyone (dev and ops) so much easier when you stop having to think about single machines.

My next startup will be built on Mesosphere. Faster time to MVP and no "go dark for 18 months" when I have to scale.
