Ah ffs, again another tool another system reinventing/adding-support for the whole application stack from networking to "business logic".

Docker is starting too smell like Java Enterprise Edition, but none-Java, and comes from Linux.

It was supposed to contain an application, now there is special networking needs to support an "application" that is made to run "in" docker, and special software /orchestration to faciliate what is a middle-ware business-domain problem.

Are we going to see books soon with titles such as "Programming your E2E business app on the platform of Docker in 24hours". "Inside your social media networking platform up and running in and with Docker."

The cynic in me thinks that this is a highly desired end-state for Docker, and engineering such a situation is precisely the goal plan.

It would certainly be profitable for them.
