For entertainment only! \n\nWith the virus shutting down conferences and keeping people in the home office, we discuss the value of in-person conferences and how remote ones might could be better. Also, GKE’s kubernetes cluster pricing (and Amazon’s drop to match the price) gives us an anchoring point for pricing running a cluster. Coupled with the recent CNCF survey you could make an interesting stew. Finally, Coté tries to run some numbers to figure out how much Thoma Bravo profited from taking Compuware private.

CLASSY.\nDemographics:\n\n\n“September and October 2019 and received 1,337 responses.”\n30% of respondents from orgs with 5,000+ employees.\n??? “The top job functions were software architect (41%), DevOps manager (39%), and back-end developer (24%)”\nMost respondents from “Software,” “Technology,” and “Financial Services” - all the bleeding edge.\n\nAmazon is #1, Google probably #2.\nCI/CD (loosely applied) is at 40% to 50% - which is close Coté’s ongoing estimates (and, considering that most of the respondents are from tech and banks, if we’re cynical, probably less for the other industries).\nThe jump in production is really quick, maybe (Page 5, “Use of Containers since 2016”? It took about 4 years for prod use to be broadly done (in Dec 17, prod reached 75% which matches test)\n\nMost figures like these (e.g., number of containers in production) would be a lot more interesting/useful if they were broken out by company size. E.g., larger companies probably use more containers in production, tech and banks probably have put containers in production earlier, also telcos - T-Mobile alone has 34,000 containers in production (probably even more by now).\nSimilarly, how many clusters are in production would be interesting to see by organization size.\n\n\nChallenges are sort of interesting, as always. \n\n\nI don’t like “culture” as a broad category. That usually just means “people don’t do what I think they should do [and instead have their own ideas of what’s best].”\nHowever: obviously “security”…”complexity” is another broad category - and, boy, long-time SDT sponsors must love “monitoring” as a money-pot to go after!\n\nSide-note: so, “servishmesh” means a registry to look-up how to connect to other pods/components in your kubes (like, JNDI); getting the actual network connection to that other component; securing the network connection; load balancing (this term is getting way over-blown, I think?); and then doing the layer whatever networking to account for dynamically assigned IP addresses and stuff in kubernetes. Maybe, like microservices stuff like circuit breakers, or is that too far?\nNot that many people use their own serverless framework (10%), but 34% of those who do use knative.\nThe “why you use kubernetes” chart (pg. 11) didn’t force people to rank enough: pretty much everyone agrees that All The Value-Props are great.\nHelm wins for packaging.\n\nI don’t know enough about auto-scaling to say much, but it looks like most people don’t do auto-scaling unless it’s for purely stateless apps, which makes sense. The drop-off after that (queues, batch-jobs, stateless, and DB) seems to indicate that auto-scaling other stuff is difficult, untrusted.\n“nginx kept its lead this year as the top Kubernetes ingress provider (62%), followed again by HAProxy (22%)” - F5 got a good control-point on the kubernetes market for $670 million, plus the entire rest of the nginx business.\n“40% of respondents get their info from Twitter” - humanity had a good run!\n\n\n\nNon Sense\n\n\nPublic Enemy Fires Flavor Flav After Bernie Sanders Rally Spat\nSETI@home Search for Alien Life Project Shuts Down After 21 Years\n## Sponsors \n\n\nArrested DevOps Podcast:\nSubscribe today by searching for “Arrested DevOps” in you favorite podcast app or by visiting https://www.arresteddevops.com/.\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nKubeCon EU in Amsterdam, July/August, use code KCEUSDP15 for 15% off. \n\n\nVMware/Tanzu lurnin' workshop\n\nDevOpsDays Austin 2020 May 4th and 5th.\nChefConf 2020 in Seattle June 1-4.\nDevOpsDays Minneapolis, August 4 - 5, 2020 use code SDT for 10% off registration.\nTHAT Conference August 3 - 6 in Wisconsin Dells®.\n\n\nSDT news & hype\n\n\nJoin us in Slack.\nSend your postal address to stickers@softwaredefinedtalk.com and we will send you free laptop stickers!\nFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or LinkedIn \nListen to the Software Defined Interviews Podcast.

Coté probably messed up his math on the Thoma Bravo profit from Compuware. Maybe it's more like $5bn. But, obviously, he's just farting around with incomplete information. He apologies and will sit in the corner for awhile. For entertainment only!

\n\n

With the virus shutting down conferences and keeping people in the home office, we discuss the value of in-person conferences and how remote ones might could be better. Also, GKE’s kubernetes cluster pricing (and Amazon’s drop to match the price) gives us an anchoring point for pricing running a cluster. Coupled with the recent CNCF survey you could make an interesting stew. Finally, Coté tries to run some numbers to figure out how much Thoma Bravo profited from taking Compuware private. (Also, he always mispronounces it as Thom-oh Bravo.)

Big bets were made and that whole cloud things overshadowed things. We also talk about the mysteries of private equity, here what Thoma Bravo has done to make billions of dollars of Dynatrace and Compuware. Finally, we briefly talk about the whole microservices and serverless are silly trend - monoliths rule! (Oh, and some small Java talk.)\n\n(Sorry there’s so much high-volume on Coté's end.

Coté needs to get a new pop-filter.)\n\nMood board:\n\n\nInterpol can’t find me in Australia, right?\nDigital transformation is bad.\nDid they decide that the kids are all right?\nThought leader me into happiness.\nYou are so much more cynical than me.\nWhat does IBM do? \nReverse halo effect.\nSurviving the trough of disillusionment.\nWe’ll stick up for digital transformation - No!\nFor the rest of your life, do better.\nMinor bread talk.\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nIBM\n\n\nIBM CEO Ginni Rometty is stepping down, Arvind Krishna to take over\n1 big thing: Ginni Rometty out at IBM\nIBM’s Lost Decade\nIBM didn’t spent much CAPEX, three others did.\nCoté: what’s there to say that’s new? Cloud wasn’t executed well (I guess?) and Watson was a poor choice for such a high priority.\n\nThoma Bravo to Explore $2 Billion Sale of Compuware\n\n\nSo, did Thoma Bravo do well here?\n“could value the mainframe software provider at around $2 billion, including debt, according to people familiar with the matter.”\n“Thoma Bravo took Compuware private in 2014 in a deal valued at $2.5 billion. It carved out Compuware’s application performance management division, renamed it Dynatrace Inc. and took it public last year.”\nDynatrace market cap is ~$9.1bn, was ~$6.7bn on IPO day (August 2019).\nBrenon@451 on the IPO, August 2019: “Post-offering, the PE firm still owns about 70% of Dynatrace.”\nAnd: “Dynatrace raised roughly $570m in its offering, some of which will go toward paying down its nearly $1bn in debt.”\n451’s note on the 2014 going private.\nSo, if Thoma Bravo still owns 70%, then have ~$6.37bn worth of equity (70% of market cap of $9.1bn)…sounds… really good for laying for laying down $2.5bn, plus you might get $2bn more from the rest of Compuware.\nThat’s crazy, right? That Compuware was sitting on that much extra value?\n\nThis week in cloud architecture patterns\n\n\ntl;dr: ¯_(ツ)_/¯\nThe State of Serverless\n\n\nThis is just about AWS Lambda. (That said, what else is there?)\n“Among the companies with the largest infrastructure footprints, more than three quarters have adopted Lambda.”\nLots of node.js and python use, not much Java and .Net use. Java and python were added in the same year (2015), node.js since the start in 2014.\nCoté’s summary of their analysis: Lambda used with lots of data processing, primarily with python and node, at mostly large orgs. Not used by Java devs.\n\nModular Monolithic Architecture, Microservices and Architectural Drivers\n“Monoliths are the future,” Kelsey Hightower.\n“Now that our industry is finally recovering from the mass delusion that microservices was going to be the future, it's surely time to for the even bigger delusion that serverless is what's going to provide the all-purpose salvation.” @dhh Also: his 2016 suggestion that monoliths work best for small teams, microservices for huge orgs.\n\nRelated: Reframing and Retooling for Observability, James Governor - overview of observability, in serious James mode.\nJRebel Java survey:\n\n\nOver 60% use Java 8 or older. Java 8 was released in March 2014, no more updates to Java 8.\nTomcat dominates app server use at 60%+. Free and works is a hell of a combination.\nSpring and Spring Boot very dominate.\n“It was very surprising to see how many of our survey respondents are paying for Oracle JDK.

Under Augustus, a compromise was reached with the construction of a parallel canal. The part of the marsh above sea level was successfully drained by channels, and new agricultural land of legendary fertility came into being. Whenever the channels were not maintained, the swamp reappeared. Meanwhile, frequent epidemics of malaria at Rome and elsewhere kept the reclamation issue alive. Under Benito Mussolini's regime in the 1930s, the problem was nearly solved by placing dikes and pumping out that portion of the marsh below sea level. It continues to need constant maintenance. Italian confidence in the project was so high, the city placed by Mussolini in 1932 in the center of the marsh, Latina, became the capital of a new province, Latina.”\nThere were German colonies - mostly in Africa.\n\n\nSDT news & hype\n\n\nJoin us in Slack.\nSend your postal address to stickers@softwaredefinedtalk.com and we will send you free laptop stickers!\nFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or LinkedIn \nListen to the Software Defined Interviews Podcast.

Plus, maybe scooters are actually good for cities and compiling source code for your infrastructure software is probably a bad idea. Don’t @ us.\n\nBuy Coté’s book dirt cheap!\n\nMood Board:\n\n\nEvil Hodor is cancelled.\nMust be this short to ride free.\nThe full mullet of monitoring.\nThere is no nuance to this statement.\nJust keep using VMware.\nIf you’re compiling the source code, you’re gonna have problems.\nLAMP stack.\nTell me how to do what I want, not why I can’t do it.\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nPivotal kubernetes stuff, alpha of running all the stuff on Kubernetes (PKS), Pivotal’s JRE/Tomcat product now GA.\n\n\n“PAS on Kubernetes is packaged as a tile for Ops Manager, and uses BOSH to deploy its system components. It requires vSphere, NSX-T, and Enterprise PKS. “ (“Tile” is Pivotal speak for “feature/sub-system/plugin/extension/component/product/etc.”)\nGood summary from NL coverage:\n\n\nBuild Service: Easily automates container images for developers and offers companies audit and security controls that are needed to work with confidence on a large scale. Build Service is made possible by the CNCF Cloud-Native Buildpacks project and is co-developed by Pivotal.\nRabbitMQ for Kubernetes: Automates the implementation and management of RabbitMQ. In addition, RabbitMQ is configurable and offers a self-service experience for developers;\nService Mesh: Automates the installation and configuration of Istio. This allows developers to drop apps to production quickly and safely. In addition, it provides secure networks that businesses need.\nSpring Runtime: It offers comprehensive support for Java environments, including OpenJDK, Spring Support and Apache Tomcat.\n\nThe New Stack: The Pivotal Application Service Addresses Kubernetes Complexity.\nPretty good summary of Pivotal Cloud Foundry as a whole: “Pivotal Application Service is a software application development platform based on the open-source Cloud Foundry project, which provides a range of clouds, developer frameworks and app services to work with. The idea is to make it easier for developers to build, test, deploy and scale up their apps on a variety of cloud platforms.”\nTaft: “This reflects an important strategic shift by Pivotal to acknowledge the importance of Kubernetes as an integral component of customers' application modernization programs, said Charlotte Dunlap, an analyst at GlobalData in Santa Cruz, Calif.”\nJeffrey Hammond, Forrester: \"For a while I've spoken to enterprises that are worried that they have to make a choice: PAS and Cloud Foundry, or go with Kubernetes and give up what they like about PAS. This makes it possible to keep what they like about PAS and work at a higher level of abstraction, without worrying about somehow missing out on all the innovation going on in the Kubernetes world.\"\n\nIBM kubernetes stuff, at OSCON.\n\n\n‘Appsody is pitched as allowing developers to quickly create microservices to their organisation’s standards and requirements, using pre-configured stacks and templates for “popular open source runtimes and frameworks, providing a foundation to build applications for Kubernetes and Knative deployments.”’\n‘Codewind, is a project to provide extensions to IDEs, starting with VS Code, Eclipse and Eclipse Che, to allow them to be used to build containerised applications.’\n‘As for Kabanero, this aims to bring together projects like Knative, Istio and Tekton, along with Codewind, Appsody, and Razzee, to allow users to “architect, build, deploy, and manage the lifecycle of Kubernetes-based applications.” The project includes “pre-built deployments to Kubernetes and Knative (using Operators and Helm charts)…so, developers can spend more time developing scalable applications and less time understanding infrastructure.”’\n\nFor Digital Transformers, It's About Fast-Moving Data. Here Are Three Ways to Speed Up.\nThe Google Cloud Developer's Cheat Sheet.\nIBM's Last Report Without Red Hat Was a Mixed Bag.\nBulgaria Beat: Data of Nearly Every Adult in Bulgaria Likely Stolen in Cyberattack.\nApple is reportedly planning to pay for exclusive podcasts. Hot-take: 🙄\nIBM and Microsoft get milly-ons from AT&T for cloud stuff:\n\n\nIBM: ‘As part of the agreement announced Tuesday, AT&T will use Red Hat’s open-source platform to manage workloads and applications and “better serve” enterprise customers. AT&T and IBM will also team up on developing “edge computing platforms” that harness 5G networks and internet-connected devices.’ \nMicrosoft: Office 365, plus: “Beyond AT&T’s own internal use of Microsoft technology, the companies are working together on developing tools for artificial intelligence and high-speed 5G wireless, and plan to announce additional services later this year.”\nAlso, coverage from Tim Anderson at The Register.\n\nGoogle Maps now displays bike-sharing stations worldwide - cities’ traffic planning and management is fully disrupted, really. They (well, meaning us via taxes) have to suck up the capital costs and upset people while the usual tech people skim data for advertising profits. Plus, you know, we get really good transportation options. See opening prattle.\nComputer password inventor dies aged 93, meanwhile, Turing to be on 50 pound note.\nIBM Takes A Hands Off Approach With Red Hat: “Given that it has been a decade and only 20 percent of the workloads have moved, there is a lot that is going to stay private and on premises, and we need a way to operate in all of these environments as opposed to having different siloes that can’t and have skills fungibility across all of them.”\nSymantec share price nose dives after rumored Broadcom biz gobble taken off the menu.\nJudge shoots down Oracle protest over $10B JEDI cloud contract, leaving Amazon and Microsoft as finalists.\nAmazon’s Latest Experiment: Retraining Its Work Force: “The e-commerce giant said Thursday that it planned to spend $700 million to retrain about a third of its American workers to do more high-tech tasks, an acknowledgment that advances in technology are remaking jobs in nearly every industry — and that workers will need to adapt or risk being left behind.”\n\n\nNonsense\n\n\nHot dog fan?

No matter the searing product strategy insight, ops is always left holding the bag. With few exceptions (like NSX), infrastructure software has to be free and easy to check out and even use. All product management and strategy decisions flow from that. Usually. Except when they don’t. Also, developers don’t pay for anything, they trick ops into it. Maybe that’ll change in public cloud land, but who knows?

Further, Bitnami will be able to augment our existing efforts to deliver a curated marketplace to VMware customers that offers a rich set of applications and development environments in addition to infrastructure software.”\nCoté: so Bitnami is a thing that packages up software for you in (VMs?) containers and stuff, maybe with some Helm chart stuff for deploying to kubernetes? And a service that manages them in EC2?\nJay@451: “The acquisition will also help VMware support applications in various forms – including VMs, containers and Kubernetes Helm charts – across the different infrastructures. With Bitnami, VMware is also positioned to support ISVs and open source software components with Bitnami's catalog of curated, secured, certified components.”\n“VMware says it has acquired Bitnami for its multi-cloud competency and its Kubernetes expertise. VMware's acquisitions of CloudVelox, Heptio and CloudHealth have signaled its appetite for multi-cloud and Kubernetes.”\nThe New Stack coverage: “Monocular, a service described by Bitnami as an open source search and discovery frontend for Helm Chart repositories.”\nhttps://thenewstack.io/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami-the-app-marketplace-platform-and-container-packager/\n\nHoly high street, Sainsbury's! Have you forgotten Bezos' bunch are the competition?\n\n\nCoté’s collection of interesting bits, including:\n“This was effectively taking a WebSphere e-commerce monolith with an Oracle RAC database, and moving it, and modularising it, and putting it into AWS.”\n“’Today, we run about 80 per cent of our groceries online with EC2, and 20 per cent is serverless.’ In total, the company migrated more than 7TB of data into the cloud. As a result, or so Jordan claimed, the mart spends 30 per cent less on infrastructure, and regularly sees a 70-80 per cent improvement in performance of interactions on the website and batch processing.”\nAustralian $50 bills\n\nSymantec CEO Greg Clark steps down, stock drops\nGitHub Package Registry: Your packages, at home with their code\n\n\nJFrog and Sonatype watch out\n\nHow Windows and Chrome quietly made 2019 the year of Linux on the desktop\n\n\nIt’s time for another installment of Coté’s Pedantry on Market Share Analysis (tm).\nWindows ships a Linux in a nifty VM.\nChromebook market share was ~13% in Gartner’s 2016Q4 estimates (based on 9.4m Chromebooks shipped out of 72.6m laptops total).\nMeanwhile, Gartner estimates that something like 2bn mobile devices (phones and tablets) were shipped in 2016. Gartner said shipments for “PCs, tablets and mobile phones” was 2.33bn in 2016 (if I read the press release right - something around those numbers).\n…if you run-rate the Chromebook Q4 (which is very kind since Christmas and corporate end-of-year spending is in Q4), you get 2016 shipments of 37.6m Chromebooks. So, out of all types of computing devices, Chromebooks are, like 37.6m out of 2.3bn, or ~2%, right?\nClearly: LINUX DESKTOP VICTORY! (I guess you could throw MacOS in there, but those who’d care say that was BSD or something, right? Even if you do throw them in and do *nix market share, what’s it like? Gartner says 2018Q4 Apple share was 7.2%, so add in Chromebooks and we’re at 9.2% - round it up for shits and giggles, and we’re at 10%.

The deal should also have a broad impact on enterprise DevOps since CloudBees – backer of the widely used Jenkins CI server – will add release management, orchestration, automation and other aspects of CD from Electric Cloud, a leading enterprise DevOps specialist. The combined offerings should help provide feedback for enterprises throughout CI/CD release processes, enabling and enhancing feedback loops that are critical to successful DevOps implementations.

Also, some uninformed commentary on “surveillance capitalism.”\n\nSolarwinds\n\nTo learn more or try the company’s DevOps products for free, visit https://solarwinds.com/devops. \n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nOracle Will Charge for Java Starting in 2019.\n\n\nWhat was Java treated like way back in the mid-2000s Sun days?\nShould you pay for this kind of thing?\nIt seems like the answer is just to run an OpenJDK version (Oracle even has one) or pay for support. With OpenJDK you have to do updates/patches yourself…but, then, that’s why you don’t have to pay for it. Pay for it, and you’re paying someone else to worry about that.\nForrester Report:\n“The new subscription's prices for Oracle Java SE support — $25 a month per server core and $2.50 a month per Java client — apply to all Oracle Java SE commercial customers. Previously, only Oracle's Java SE Advanced customers paid support fees to obtain security patches among other benefits ($5,000 per processor, plus 22%).”\nOracle to do two Java releases a year, but many companies are way behind and don’t like upgrading. Like, if you haven’t reached release management maturity: “Executing manual regression tests multiple times each year to stay on the latest version of OpenJDK will prove to be a labor-draining exercise, but so will automating existing manual tests and keeping them up to date.”\nOld stuff likes old pricing models: “For Java runtimes, however, monthly subscriptions have minimal advantage, as most applications are now stable workloads. Most customers don't need pricing that allows them to scale down, as they almost never will.”\nFrom their blog on the topic: “Under the best of circumstances, a technology base of Java’s size, age, and complexity can’t pivot within six months to new support structures carrying big potential additional costs.” \n\nThieves of Experience: How Google and Facebook Corrupted Capitalism.\n\n\n“surveillance capitalism uses human life as its raw material. Our everyday experiences, distilled into data, have become a privately owned business asset used to predict and mold our behavior, whether we’re shopping or socializing, working or voting.”\nIf you’re not buying a product, you are a product “gets it wrong. Surveillance capitalism’s real products, vaporous but immensely valuable, are predictions about our future behavior — what we’ll look at, where we’ll go, what we’ll buy, what opinions we’ll hold — that internet companies derive from our personal data and sell to businesses, political operatives, and other bidders.”\nThe question is: what’re other options?\nThe latest The Weeds episode (Feb 5th, 2019) has a discussion of Facebook making you unhappy, and also compared to the TV rotting your brain meme.\nSide-note: what’s up with podcasts (like The Weeds) that don’t have actual show notes in a web page?\n\nCrypto CEO dies with the password to unlock $200+ million of customers' Bitcoin.\nSlack makes confidential filing to go public\nFormer Puppet CEO Sanjay Mirchandani Named CEO Of Commvault\nIDE based coding thing that uses kubernetes, from RedHat\n\n\nKubernetes Goes Native for Developers\nRed Hat Launches CodeReady Workspaces Kubernetes IDE.\n\n\n\nNon Sense\n\n\nUrban Dictionary: dunning-krugerrand.\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nALERT!

Yes. “The most boring topic of all time.” Also, Slack's logo and long term support software monetization models: how do they work?\n\nSummary:\n\n\n“Diapers.com buster (AKA Amazon)”\n“What is someone really selling with LTS?”\n“Artful genitals.”\n“It’s not butt ducks”\n“I’ve had three dogs since then…”\nMicrosoft laughed.\n\n\nThis week’s cover art from TheNextWeb.\n\nMONGO, MONGO, MONGO!\n\n\nMongoDB Issues New Server Side Public License for MongoDB Community Server\nMongoDB not in RHEL 8.0\nMongoDB \"open-source\" Server Side Public License rejected\nAWS vs. open source: DocumentDB is the latest battlefront\nAWS gives open source the middle finger\nAWS, MongoDB, and the Economic Realities of Open Source (Ben Thompson)\nFine, fine…but music companies didn’t “sell” CDs, they sold music. Authors don’t “sell” printed books, they sell stories. They sell IP. The medium isn’t the product. \n\n\n“This trade-off is inescapable, and it is fair to wonder if the golden age of VC-funded open source companies will start to fade (although not open source generally). The monetization model depends on the friction of on-premise software; once cloud computing is dominant, the economic model is much more challenging.”\nThere’s some ponderous gyrating between public cloud being good at managed hosting/services (they run the stuff well) vs. software (their features are unique/good).\n\nBen’s follow-up (subscription required):\n\n\n“ Atlas was only 8% of total revenue last year, which grew 57% year-over-year; that means that Atlas itself grew 330% year-over-year, from $3.3 million to $14.3 million. Of course cost of revenue grew 68% as well, thanks to a $4.1 million increase in hosting costs (AWS wins either way), but particularly given the addition of a free Atlas offering, those costs aren’t out of line.”\n\nSo, with this “SSPL” thing, AWS would have to open source all of itself, or just the DocumentDB part? \n\n\nHere: “The specific objection is that SSPL requires, if you offer services licensed under it, that you must open-source all programs that you use to make the software available as a service. \nFrom Mongo’s press release on SSPL, Oct. 2018: “The only substantive change is an explicit condition that any organization attempting to exploit MongoDB as a service must open source the software that it uses to offer such service.”\n\nWhat would happen if AWS was all open source? Given that few companies could use OpenStack or make their own clouds (even with cloud.com and such), just having the code matters little to a successful cloud business, right?\n\n\nOr, maybe it doesn’t mean all of AWS, just the DocumentDB part. Which is, really, the in the spirit of the GPL.\n\nThe competitive tactic of forcing competitors to open source their stuff is weird.\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nAmazon reportedly acquired Israeli disaster recovery service CloudEndure for around $200M\nAWS makes another acquisition grabbing TSO Logic\nIBM Just Unveiled The First Commercial Quantum Computer\n\n\n“Watson!

This episode is sponsored by SolarWinds® and this week, SolarWinds wants you to know about their tools designed for DevOps: Pingdom®, AppOptics™, Papertrail™, and Loggly®.

\n\n

Today’s recognized pillars of observability combine metrics, traces, and logs to enable DevOps teams to monitor system and application performance. But, these capabilities provide only limited insights into application performance because they ignore the user’s experience—a critical measure of application performance.

\n\n

Understanding if a system is slow or unavailable from an end user’s perspective is crucial in today’s digital world, even if the metrics are good and there are no alerts.

\n\n

Altogether, the combined functionality of Pingdom, AppOptics, Papertrail, and Loggly brings together real user monitoring, synthetic user monitoring, web and application performance metrics, distributed tracing, event aggregation, and log management to help proactively identify bottlenecks and accelerate troubleshooting.

\n\n

By bringing user experience, metrics, traces, and logs together with an easy-to-use, complementary toolkit, DevOps teams gain unmatched visibility into their cloud environment, so they can seamlessly follow an alert or issue from one product into another to resolve issues quickly and get back to focusing on the more proactive elements of their job.

That’s why hybrid cloud is a requirement for most enterprises.”\nWell, at least their straight-up on pricing: “Pricing for software-only subscriptions will start at approximately $65,000 per year for a typical entry-level configuration. On AWS, customers pay $0.20 per hour for each Amazon EKS cluster that they create in addition to the AWS resources (e.g. Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon Elastic Block Store volumes) they create to run Kubernetes worker nodes.”\n\n\nSAP snaps up Qualtrics for $8B days before its expected IPO, will keep Seattle office: “Qualtrics offers software-as-a-service that companies use to measure and manage their reputations with current and prospective customers as well as a similar service for internal use managing employees.”\nReport: Vista Equity Partners poised to pay $1.9 billion in private-equity deal for Apptio\nReport: Amazon picks New York and Northern Virginia for HQ2\nGoogle went down after traffic was routed through China and Russia\nAmazon Announces New York and Virginia as HQ2 Picks\nAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez slams Amazon’s imminent arrival in Queens\nOpenStack Expands With New Projects, Canonical’s CEO Is Not Thrilled\nRed Hat Squeezes OpenStack, OpenShift Closer Together\nOpenStack expands focus beyond the IaaS cloud\n\n\nThe Foundation keeps on the plan of expanding its portfolio.\n\nRed Hat blends Kubernetes into Red Hat OpenStack Platform 14\nCoder: $4.5M Series Seed Announcement – Coder – Medium\n\n\nSponsored by DataDog\n\nThis episode is sponsored by Datadog and this week Datadog wants you to know about Watchdog. \n\nWatchdog automatically detects performance problems in your applications without any manual setup or configuration.

This fit the market need in many cases, but posed significant challenges from a marketing and messaging standpoint, as the market understands product companies and service companies but is less comfortable with descriptions that don’t entirely fit into either bucket.”\n“None of [the open source tools developers love(d) so much] concerned VMware particularly, because as its early developer attention waned its popularity within the operations side of the house – and central IT in particular – boomed. Which has been good for the company generally as central IT has historically been less concerned both about software being open source and being free than developers, which has led to VMware becoming an enterprise datacenter standard which in turn led to its current $60.7B market cap – a valuation roughly double that of Red Hat’s, for context.”\n\nRelated: El Reg decoder ring.\nHeptio's Episode of Exegesis podcast.\n\n\nNonsense\n\n\nWorld Plug Types - what a shit-show.\n“Hajime Sorayama robot art.”\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nNov 3rd to Nov 12th - SpringOne Tour - Singapore Nov 12th. \nNov 14th to 16th - Devoxx Belgium, Antwerp.

Let’s take it for mature-granted that we’d prefer enterprises be Pivotal customers than IBM/Red Hat customers. Now, let’s put that aside.\nThis is an exquisite slide from their deck: \n\n\n\nEasily the best corporate deck slide of 2018.\n\nFirst, this is a bold, good move. Acquiring Red Hat has always been a hill too high and it’s kind of mind-blowing that someone actually did it. The valuation here is sort of besides the point of anything impressive. In contrast, the GitHub valuation was impressive because GitHub is a one product company (please don’t email me about “community” as a separate product - sure thing, I agree). Red Hat is kind of everything IBM has missing…except public cloud.\nTo be, I guess, contrarian and annoyingly not Pivotal-biased, I think it’ll be hard for IBM to fuck this up.\nOn that last point, Ben Thompson: “The company has spent the years since then claiming it is committed to catching up in the public cloud, but the truth is that Palmisano sealed the company’s cloud fate when he failed to invest a decade ago; indeed, one of the most important takeaways from the Red Hat acquisition is the admission that IBM’s public cloud efforts are effectively dead.”\n\n\nIn other word, IBM is too late to catch-up to public cloud co.’s, it’d need to spend lots of capex to get close.\nRelated, sick nerd burn: “Meanwhile, [IBM’s] aforementioned commitment to the cloud has mostly been an accounting fiction derived from re-classifying existing businesses”\n\nFixing IBM’s cloud business. What was wrong in the first place?\nThings Red Hat has: RHEL revenue, JBoss developer presence, product/developer know-how, support know-how, OSS good-will, OpenShift as a k8s distribution:\n\n\nRHEL & IBM has a foot-print in most all enterprise stacks, but not public cloud(?)\nIBM knows how to eek out OS revenue, so does Red Hat.\nJBoss + WebSphere. At some point, IBM had a huge developer community. They likely do among enterprise developers (but even there, it’s been fading). Red Hat has developers - I assume. People do like kubernetes.\nThe know-how and good will are interesting - added to IBM’s OSS equivalent (they still have that?) you have, potentially, the biggest OSS people around…? I’m not sure which standards bodies this allows them more control over, no which projects. Google and Microsoft are contenders here too.\n\n“Lock-in”:\n\n\nFrom the press release: “research shows that 80 percent of business workloads have yet to move to the cloud, held back by the proprietary nature of today’s cloud market.” (No citation provided. I will assume it’s from the Anonymous Galactic Research Board Whose IP Licensing Policy Prohibits Your From Citing Us By Name Because We Prefer to Peacefully Float In Space Like Those Rasta Dudes in William Gibson Books But The Good Early Ones Not The Weird In The Present Ones Except For the Blue Color of Bigend’s Suit Which Was Actually Pretty Cool - But Cuban Parkour Ninja Cults? Boy.)\n\n\nSee also: Turns out Pareto was some kind of every single study ever genius. Shut it down, boys, turns out every survey result ends up in an 80/20 split.\n\nAs ever, this topic vexes me. I take lock-in to mean:\n\n\nI don’t want to keep paying this rent-seeker, aka, “maintenance contracts - AMIRIGHT?.” I’m just interested in paying less. If you gave me a closed source offering that was free, I’d be just as happy.\nI don’t want to get trapped in an aging stack that isn’t evolving (e.g., I want to use node.js on UNIVACs, or something), so I need “the freedom to leave” to get the benefits of new technologies.\nI like having the source code for transparency, to make my own forks, and/or because rainbows and sandals.\n\nLike, seriously, what options do you have to move to?\nDIY stack - you’re going to take the IBM/Red Hat stack and run it all on your own, merging in new releases and patches, even forking and evolving it yourself. Will all the IBM stuff be available? What if you run on VMware or Azure or Softlayer? How do you rebuild that entire stack? So you just want to rebuild a little bit of it? If you throw OpenStack with KVM in there, plus whatever SDN and storage stuff you could get in open source, throw in some OSS network routing…you could get away with the only proprietary thing being chips and other rando hardware things. You’ll need some bare-metel BIOS/firmware update things.\n\n\nBegged question: how far (and up!) the stack do you want to be un-proprietary? Only use OSS Android on jail-broken phones? No iPhones, clearly, and toss out Safari, macOS, and Windows - maybe you can cruise in with some HTML5 stuff through Firefox and Chrome on the desktop and mobile, then on some Eclipse for GUIs?\n\nAWS, Azure, Google Cloud, AzureStack, Pivotal ready stack with VMware - perhaps you could take the thin k8s and PaaS layer from the Red Hat IBM stack and move it to those clouds? Will that work? Is it better, economically and innovation roadmap-ally than just sticking with IBM/Red Hat\nAlibaba and the other non-Western clouds. Same.\nMSPs like Rackspace. Maybe - the Rackspace people could just run whatever you want. See concerns of #1, plus the premium paid for “fanatical.” Maybe Rackspace has some SRE magic that allows them to do what you’d be doing at 80% of the cost, or something.\nI don’t understand this reasoning. How is IBM + Red Hat lack of “proprietary nature”? If I’m running an IBM/RedHat stack, can I just move off all my workloads over night, paying nothing to move and then run my workloads, like, perfectly? If I’m running on that stack, and then I want to move to Google Cloud, does that work? Where-else would I go? Can I just take my pods and throw them onto Azure?\nAlso, if any of these are practically true - it’s a shitty business for IBM/Red Hat to be in, at least a huge risk for them to carry. Any time a customer cashes in on freedom to leave, that’s lost revenue to IBM/Red Hat.\nMy point is: I wish we’d stop talking about lock-in and focus on more practical matters, namely, does the technology work, does it work in a good ecosystem/community (I can find and make it work with other stuff), does it evolve/innovate at a pace I like, and am I happy with the initial and ongoing costs. If the answer to all of those is yes, I don’t think people care about OSS versus closed. But what do I know, I don’t know such stuff, I just do slides.\n\nWhat really matters is getting the two sales forces to sell each other’s stuff, esp. accelerating OpenShift. The IBM sales force has to sell moving away from their traditional offerings (WebSphere, 3 tier, etc.) and instead sell modernizing to OpenShift. That’s fine, but a lot to ask. Also, the comp. plans might get dicey. Part of the point of modernizing is to reduce costs, implying a lower up-front deal-size and smaller ongoing deal-size. So, you’re asking the IBM rep to sell cheaper products, potentially. And if you’re not, see lock-in screed above on pricing. There’s not much upside to sales people here, aside from maybe holding onto an eroding market, but that’s years out, sales people are short-term focused by design. Red Hat sales people might fare better because they’re used to that deal size and can sell more; however, IBM sales people will resist these Red Hat people getting into their account and snatching their paper. All of this is not a killer, but likely the bulk of work that needs to be nailed to synergize maximally (my favorite type of synergizing).\nBrandon’s winners/looses, also O’Grady’s.\n\n\nCloud Earnings\n\n\nAmazon says AWS revenue jumped 46 percent in third quarter\nMicrosoft’s commercial cloud revenue jumped 47 percent in its fiscal Q1, but Azure growth slows\nGoogle Cloud Revenue Boosts Alphabet’s Earnings - SDxCentral\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nOracle Open World 2018: CEO Mark Hurd says SAP ERP customers will defect\nAtlassian reimagines Jira to herd cats, a.k.a. developer teams\nServerless Architecture Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis\nWerner Vogels responds to CNBC story about Amazon Outage\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nNov 3rd to Nov 12th - SpringOne Tour - all over the earth!

It’s hard to follow cause it doesn’t show up in all my feeds like, well, everything else. I’m intrigued by their emphasis on performance and (to a lesser extent) cost. They really hit up the performance characteristics - I’m not sure they mention ease of use or “outcomes” very much.\nThe focus on security is bizarre. Not because they shouldn’t have these things, but because these things are, well, what they should have. Cloud vendors don’t go around chest thumping about how secure they are in the same way that bakers don’t go around chest thumping about how their food is edible.\nPerformance pitching has always been Oracle’s thing (as those of us who used to read printed trade rags know). It’s sort of indicative of easier sales: it’s all numbers in a spreadsheet, then you sort a column and it tells you which vendor to pick.\nThen there’s Oracle commentary on Amazon of how hard it is to move off Oracle, just barely wrapping itself in the mantle of “because our stuff works better,” when at the core it seems like the worst case of lock-in rent-seeking:\n‘Oracle Chairman and co-founder Larry Ellison isn't buying it. On the company's earnings call in December, Ellison said Amazon \"is not moving off of Oracle.\" He reiterated his point at an August event, saying, \"I don't think they can do it.\n‘They've had 10 years to get off Oracle, and they're still on Oracle,\" he said. \"And it's not going to be easy for them to use their own technology. It's not going to be cost-effective. I mean, it's really, really hard.’\n☞ This kind of talk is why we all love to hear “Larry” (as everyone calls him) talk. He’s like the Steve Banon of the IT industry.\nThey should start demo’ing at DevOpsDays and O’Reilly conferences more.\nTopic: when pitching to “the community” is irrelevant, or, “CIOs don’t go to your shit conferences, nerds.”\nNow, to put me further out on on the ledge of not knowing Oracle well, they sell a shit-ton of ERP software. They could likely have a larger, positive impact on global productivity by making that ERP software better, no matter how good it is. In the coverage I’ve read, there’s little talk about how they’re revolutionizing ERP stuff - how “machine learning” is improving that. Can it figure out how to file expenses for me? Optimize a supply chain (what ever the fuck that means), etc.? For example, Oracle has the potential to turn all that Watson talk intro practical, everyday applications of “AI.” IBM doesn’t have an ERP suite (they just have re-selling and packaging other people’s stuff injected with Watson thingies - again, whatever the fuck that means) - but Oracle does, plus the foot-print of people using it. I’m sure there’s plenty of money in databases…but their potential to improve their customer’s life is probably more in apps.\nDiginomica had some ERP coverage: Park Hotels going from analog to digital in accounting, and an excellent example from Red Cross work on improving outcomes. And then back to our regularly scheduled price/performance talk.\nKurt has some good, dry lines:\nBurn-town: “[Oracle’s] Cloud 2.0 looks more like Cloud 0.5” compare to: “My project look like science fair, your project look like section 8.”\n\nAmazon's move off Oracle caused Prime Day outage in big Ohio warehouse, internal report says\n\n\n“The outage, which lasted for hours on Prime Day, resulted in over 15,000 delayed packages and roughly $90,000 in wasted labor costs, according to the report. Those costs don't include all the lost hours spent by engineers troubleshooting and fixing the errors or any potential lost sales.”\nI assume Amazon has saved much more than that by moving off Oracle.\n\nMeanwhile, downtime effects us all: Apple iCloud down for (gasp!) hours!\nTopic: how much uptime do we really need? Cf. SRE last mile problems.\nUS congress-critters question prime directive of Pentagon's $10bn JEDI cloud contract\nState of Wisconsin shares lessons learned on rolling out Oracle Exadata and how to reduce license costs\nHashiCorp updates its infrastructure automation suite for hybrid clouds\nAn Alternative History of Silicon Valley Disruption\nRockstar Games, crunch, and the great shame of the video games biz\nApple’s iCloud services suffered an extended outage\nDigital transformation of the week: “Eligible Travelers insurance customers will get a discount on their home insurance policies if they buy a smart home kit.” \nNot everyone likes open spaces: “7 is the magic number of team members for decision-making effectiveness. Once you reach that number, each additional member reduces effectiveness by 10%.” \nCloud Foundry Cult: “The users we spoke with didn't just see it as a PaaS – it was the underlying philosophy of application delivery and management upon which future developments would be based. The Foundation claims Cloud Foundry saves, on average, 10 weeks of development time and $100,000 per app development cycle. In fact, in its own survey, 92% of users cite cross-platform flexibility as important. If these panelists are gaining such benefits, it's easy to understand why they are so enamored with it.” \n300 VMs per admin is the magic number:\n\n\n“Private clouds owned and self-managed by enterprises can be cheaper than public cloud. The magic number to beat is about $25 per VM-month at 100% utilization. If the cost of the whole stack comes in under this number, then even with the addition of labor to manage that private cloud, it should be cheaper than public cloud. Obviously, with better labor efficiency, unit costs versus public cloud are lowered further, and the relative value of benefits increases. Enterprises unable to achieve a labor efficiency of 300 VMs per engineer are unlikely to beat public cloud on price.\n”Partially managed clouds have good economics. If an enterprise is able to manage just the datacenter element of a private cloud at a ratio of at least 400 VMs per engineer, that cloud may cost less to operate than fully managed alternatives. We believe enterprises could easily beat this ratio.” \n\nRelated: “Of that, private cloud spending [on hardware] reached $4.6 billion, an increase of 28.2 percent year over year. That's a significant increase, but not as great as the jump in spending on public cloud IT infrastructure, which was $10.9 billion, a 58.9 percent year-over-year growth.” \n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nOct 27th - Matt on a panel at Rakuten Technology Conference 2018\nOct 31st - Coté speaking at New Relic’s FutureStack Amsterdam.\nNov 3rd to Nov 12th - SpringOne Tour - all over the earth!

Hotel breakfast buffet strategies and the Chase Sapphire series of cards. Oh, and before that Matt and Coté spend a good 10 to 15 minutes talking about hotel breakfast buffet strategies.\n\nAlso, it’s episode #150 - yay us! Our first episode was on May 27th, 2014, where Coté’s lamp played a prominent role, and we did video.\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nChase Sapphire Reserve, and others in the Sapphire line. AAdvantage Executive card.\nSpringOne Platform videos are all up.\nCoté went to Puppetizer 2018 Amsterdam. They’re really into being “a portfolio company” now. Lots of stacks presented; much discussion on managing Puppet itself. A very well run event. See also Register coverage of their SF event. \nGoogle is shutting down Google+ following massive data exposure - “90 percent of Google+ user sessions last for less than five seconds.”\n\n\nbe like google prd mgmt desertion\neffect other enterprise props?\nlegacy services\n\nOpenOffice watch - ‘Back in 2015, Red Hat developer Christian Schaller called OpenOffice \"all but dead.\"’\nAustin Ernest says make sure you don’t cargo cult The SRE.\nThe Demise of Blockbuster, and Other Failure Fairy Tales - Strategy is hard, execution at the middle-management later is harder. Put yet another way, company executives have a lot less power than you’d think. Related: WTF is “culture”?\nThis week in IPOs: Elastic has a party, Solarwinds figuring one out.\n\n\nElastic: “The stock closed at $70 per share, representing a 94.4 percent rise.” Close of market on Oct. 10th: $62.50 per share.\n451 on Elastic revenue, Scott Denne: “The developer of open source search software for IT log analysis, security analytics and other applications nearly doubled its top line in its fiscal year (ending April 30) to $160m, up from $88m a year earlier, while increasing the share of subscription revenue in its mix.”\nMore: “Judging by Elastic’s offering, the [Q3] dry spell had little impact on investor appetites, setting up a favorable environment for Anaplan and SolarWinds as both look to price this month.”\n451 on Elastic’s product, Nancy Gohring: “One of the most important messages that emerged from ElasticOn is that Elastic is positioning its software to serve as a platform for collecting and analyzing a wide array of machine data that can be used in a variety of use cases. With its recently announced APM UI and the forthcoming Infra UI, as well as the Canvas visualization capabilities, SQL-like querying and advancing machine-learning techniques, the Elastic Stack will be usable as a centralized platform for collecting and analyzing logs, events and metrics by constituents within a business including IT ops, security, executive leadership, product management and others.”\n\n\nSo, Elastic is…an OSS (presumably) cheaper Splunk, but for general search not just IT? Or, wait, it is just IT stuff?\n\nSolarwinds: Coté hasn’t been able to parse out the Solarwinds deal. The big question is/will be, “so, did it make sense to go private, or could that have done whatever they’re doing by staying public?”\n\nServerless and FaaS, survey shows confusion: “Despite attempts to educate the market, we still believe the word “serverless” connotes many different things, especially for the 79 percent of organizations that plan to adopt serverless architecture but have not planned to use FaaS in the next 18 months.”\n\n\nCoté’s old saw that “serverless” has just come to mean “doing programming on-top of cloud shit.” This is what Pivotal usually means when they say “cloud native,” versus the container kids who mean just “kubernetes,” at broadest, “containers.”\n\nCloudera/Hortonworks follow-up:\n\n\nTPM: “Cloudera has raked in $1.28 billion in revenues in the past six and a half years, while Hortonworks only brought in $808 million. Add in the venture capital of $1.31 billion in venture capital, plus $225 million that Cloudera raised in early 2017 for its IPO and the $100 million that Hortonworks raised in late 2014 from its IPO, and the total pile of cash that has come to the pair is $3.69 billion. Hortonworks still has $86 million of cash and Cloudera still has $440.1 million. But over that same time period, Cloudera has booked cumulative losses of $1.19 billion and Hortonworks has cumulative losses of $979 million, for a total of $2.16 billion. Both separately and together, these companies are burning the wood a lot faster than they can cut it.”\nTPM’s TAM summary, as suggested by the two companies: “The core market that Hadoop is chasing is comprised of three different segments, according to Cloudera-Hortonworks, and will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 21 percent between 2017 and 2022, from $12.7 billion to $32.3 billion. Within that, cognitive and artificial intelligence workloads represent a $14.3 billion opportunity in 2022, $4.9 billion for advanced and predictive analytics software, and $13.2 billion for dynamic data management systems (what we would call modern storage). In addition to that, the Hadoop platform is also chasing relational and non-relational database management systems and data warehouses, which is another $51 billion opportunity in 2022, for a total TAM of $83 billion. Even a small slice of this, which is what Hadoop currently gets today, could be billions of dollars by then.”\nForrester on TAM penetration, Noel Yuhanna: “We estimate that [just] 7% of organizations have completely migrated their traditional data warehouses to big data platforms. “ That’s 93% more left, assuming 20% capture for a leader, (shoddy percentage math follows)17 to 18%, I guess?\nMeanwhile, also from Forrester: “While 74% of global data and analytics decision makers tell us they will have invested in a big data lake by the end of 2017, we find that many of these are being kept on life support by the technology management shops that drove them.”\nAlso, Forrester on HARK (Hadoop & Spark), Noel Yuhanna & Mike Gualtieri: “Distributed computing software and services that are rooted in open source Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark to store, process, and analyze data to find and use insights to improve customer experiences, create timely business intelligence, optimize business processes, and make decision making smarter and faster.” Like traditional analytics, but bigger and with more ML?\n451 (Matt Aslett & James Curtis): “Although there are cross-selling opportunities and the two companies share an underlying open source foundation, there are also significant areas of product overlap and competing functionality, as well as a history of animosity to overcome.”\nTamped down TAM: “Another way of looking at this is that the Hadoop market hasn't expanded enough to support the growth targets of two independent publicly traded companies, especially with the cloud providers to contend with.”\nCloudera is the winner: “While the deal is being described by the companies as a merger, make no mistake that Cloudera is acquiring Hortonworks. After the transaction closes, Cloudera shareholders will own approximately 60% of the combined company, which will do business as Cloudera, with Hortonworks shareholders owning approximately 40%.”\nProducts, Hortnworks: “Its primary product is the Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP), which consists of core Hadoop and some 20+ open source projects. But in August 2015, the company purchased Onyara, which was based on the Apache NiFi technology, and designed to enable users to collect, process and distribute data.”\nProducts, Cloudera: “To date, Cloudera offers several products and while Hortonworks has adopted a pure 100% open source approach. Cloudera has a hybrid strategy, mixing open source with its proprietary tooling. The company's core offering is the Cloudera Enterprise Data Hub (CDH) – specifically targeted products are provided for data warehousing, operational database, and data science and engineering. Its cloud offering is Altus, a PaaS available on AWS and Azure.”\n451 in another report (Agatha Poon), on Cloudera, June 2018: “At present, data analytics tools and offerings are driving regional opportunities with enterprises slowly but clearly moving out from legacy data warehouse platform to a new generation of data analytics platform, which is highly distributed and open standards based, Cloudera says. For machine learning and advanced data analytics, the company believes that data scientists will be the main users and strategic partners to boost future uptake. While data scientists can make use of algorithms to train the model into production data clusters, it could be a time-consuming and complex endeavor. With that in mind, Cloudera has stepped up its game by acquiring applied machine learning research startup Fast Forward Labs in late 2017, deepening its expertise in applying machine learning to practical business problems. The bigger Cloudera says it is committed to researching new techniques to resolve real-world business problems, building codes as well as providing customers with machine learning advisory services leveraging Fast Forward Labs' domain expertise.”\nCloudera strategy: “Cloudera's proposition remains largely unchanged: lead machine learning in the enterprise, disrupt the data warehouse market for analytical and operational data workloads, capitalize on cloud adoption and drive innovation for simplification while mitigating data security risk. With cloud being an agent for digital transformation, the company has publicly announced its intent to lead with cloud innovation as part of the future growth strategy at the company level.”\n\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nOct 16th - DevOpsDays Paris - Coté at a table.

Redis Labs was able to make this change because it retains the copyright to the open source code.”\nCommons Clause, Redis Labs.\nAdam Jacob Twitter thread on commons clause.\n\n\nSUSE Revenue Watch\n\n\n\n\nSomehow, this has become a bit in the show. Blame Coté.\nSomething like ~$360m based on trailing 6 months runrat’ed to 12 trailing. Also, likely non-GAAP reporting (not clear if it’s ACV vs. TCV), but whatever. \nGrind and stack: “EBITDA for that period was $56 million, nearly 23 percent year-over-year growth.” So: ~$112m profit, ~31% margins. \nThat’s the kind of stable (they claim to run 70% of SAP apps), growing cash-throw-off that should make PE people drool on their Patagonia puffy vests: “Following last week's shareholder approval of Micro Focus' proposed sale of SUSE to EQT Partners for $2.535 billion, the transaction is expected to complete in the first quarter of calendar 2019, subject to customary regulatory approvals.”\nIf my math is right (it’s established that I don’t know how numbers work), clawing in all profits would pay that $2.5bn off by 2026: 8 or 10 years of holding growth and profit %.

After some rumination, Coté thins that the people backing “serverless” are just wangling to make it mean “doing programming with containers on clouds.” That is, just programming. At some point, it meant an event based system hosted in public clouds (AWS Lamda). Also, we discuss Cisco buying Duo, potential EBITA problems from Broadcom buying CA, and robot pizza. Of course, with Coté having just moved to Amsterdam, there’s some Amsterdam talk.

The value of a stock in the market is supposed to be equal to the present value of its future cash flows, and there’s nothing about the stock itself that promises you any cash flows. Or you might say that Snap’s directors and officers have a fiduciary duty to you to maximize the profits of the company and the value of your shares, but even if that were true—it’s pretty debatable—it continues to avoid the question. If Snap made massive consistent profits for decades, it would still never have to give any money back to shareholders, and the shareholders would have no way to force it to. “I own a 1/1,258,171,112 share of a massive pile of cash,” you could say, but you could never spend it.’\nImproving intranet search, always a problem:\n\n\n Box buys AI thing: “a startup whose software lets users search within files across multiple work applications.

The Full Gartner MQ. Register coverage.\nIDC survey on digital transformation says organizations are motivated to get more “productivity” and be more competitive, among other survey findings. And, as always, “the biggest barriers are people oriented.” Get the Infor sponsored PDF if you’re into this kind of thing.\nInfrastructure software is back! Also, Amazon’s DB has huge growth.\n“Full Life-cycle Developers” at Netflix\n\n\nLike SRE, but “platform ops.”\nWhich is to say, something like, “shallow DevOps.”\n“Netflix created centralized teams (e.g., Cloud Platform, Performance & Reliability Engineering, Engineering Tools) with the mission of developing common tooling and infrastructure to solve problems that every development team has. Empowered with these tools in hand, development teams can focus on solving problems within their specific product domain.”\n“As additional tooling needs arise, centralized teams assess whether the needs are common across multiple dev teams. When they are, collaborations ensue. Sometimes these local needs are too specific to warrant centralized investment. In that case the development team decides if their need is important enough for them to solve on their own.”\n“we arrived at a model where a development team, equipped with amazing developer productivity tools, is responsible for the full software life cycle: design, development, test, deploy, operate, and support”…but not the infrastructure, common middleware and services, and “platform” that they run on. Just like SRE, eh? Which the post says.\nUse of the roads seems optional, and sometimes challenging to recruit for: ‘Netflix has a “paved road” set of tools and practices that are formally supported by centralized teams. We don’t mandate adoption of those paved roads but encourage adoption by ensuring that development and operations using those technologies is a far better experience than not using them. The downside of our approach is that the ideal of “every team using every feature in every tool for their most important needs” is near impossible to achieve. Realizing the returns on investment for our centralized teams’ solutions requires effort, alignment, and ongoing adaptations.’\nCoté had dinner with Netflix tools engineer many years ago where they described exactly this.\nQuestion: what exactly is DevOps (now) anyways? Is it too expansive to be useful as a phrase, and instead a buffet of thought technologies?\n\nBMC changes PE hands:\n\n\nBrenon@451: “Terms of the BMC secondary weren't released. However, early reports indicated that the price paid by the syndicate for BMC and the price received for BMC [$6.9bn five years ago] weren't radically different.”\nSame: “the software vendor that says it posts revenue of $2bn each year.”\nThe reporters are like “I got no idea what the fuck these people do”: “Houston-based BMC builds various types of software solutions for businesses looking to manage and streamline their information.”\n“BMC has about 6,000 employees in 30 countries, according to its website.”\n“BMC has more than $5 billion in debt outstanding, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.”\n\nAnnual Meeker Slide Fest: recording, slides. Reports that the decks are getting more concise. \n\n\nKubernetes Korner\n\n\nPodCTL #37 covers Helm and other deployment schemes - Very responsible Coté hasn’t listened to it yet.\nNerd fight on forking:\n\n\nAsay: “Enterprises want stuff that works. As much as we in the open source world chatter and fret about vendor lockin, enterprises have demonstrated a remarkable ability to shrug off that concern and buy deeply into Microsoft, Oracle, and, yes, Red Hat’s OpenShift.”\nQuestion: how close are we to going OpenStack on all this? Is that even a helpful question, or just trolling?\n\n“Kubernetes has, in fact, already lost the war to serverless,” James Governor.\nBy the time you hear this, Coté will have finally given a Kubernetes talk.\nThe State Of The Kubernetes Ecosystem:\n\n\nOverview of all the (vendor) players.\n“A Forrester study found that 66% of organizations who adopted containers experienced accelerated developers efficiency, while 75% of companies achieved a moderate to significant increase in application deployment speed.”\n“According to predictions from 451 Research, the market is set to grow from $762 million in 2016 to $2.7 billion by 2020”\n\n\n\nImportant nonsense\n\n\nBA now part of TSA Pre. Can show up later for that AUS→LHR flight. Although, it’s hard to find where to enter this. Perhaps it’s ticket-by-ticket.\n# Conferences, et. al.\nJune 1st, 2018 - Coté speaking at Voxxed Days, Singapore.\nJune 28th and 29th, 2018 - Coté at DevOpsDays Amsterdam - come get a sticker!\nSep 24th to 27th - SpringOne Platform, in DC/Maryland (crabs!) get $200 off registration with the code S1P200_Cote.

If you're an old pro, you'll dive down into topics and catch-up with all the other old hands. Code: SDT2018.\n\nFollow-up\n\n\nIf you’re lucky enough to have access, check out Hammond & Rymer’s Jan 2018 report on serverless, it’s amazingly good and helpful.\n\n\n#chefconf\n\n\nChef Automate 2.0:\n\n\nDon’t worry, it’s been rewritten in Go.\nScott Carey: “with the release of Chef Automate 2.0 during Chef Conf in Chicago this week, the company is focusing on building a platform on these three pillars: infrastructure, apps and compliance, setting the company up for wherever the future takes it.”\n\nCEO’s keynote summary.\nOn-prem Habitat Builder.\nChef Workstation.\nMatt tells you how suck out some InSpec stuff from Terraform.\nHow CapitalOne uses Chef:\n\n\n“[M]ore than 15,000 nodes for dev, QA, and production environments, all hosted on AWS”\nThey like public cloud (quote from 2017 article): “About 40 percent of our production workload is on AWS now. At 40 percent we are larger than Netflix on the AWS footprint, it's huge. We are not running a hybrid model - our focus is everything on cloud. There are data centre-based applications being transformed, re-written, re-engineered, thrown out, to get to cloud.\"\n\nAlso, WTF is Helm? See: this talk from Amy Chen is really good, and this other one.\n\n\nOpenStack Summit\n\n\nSo, it’s still NFV heavy with existing enterprise deploys? Plus, Mirantis us pushing for a CI/CD focus?\nHaven’t read the survey yet.\nBrief Register coverage: VMwware updates, AT&T and others donate some code, Solarwinds adds in some more support.\nVMware likes NFV: ‘VMware is targeting the telecom industry with this release. Gabriele Di Piazza, VMware Telco NFV Business Unit's VP of products and solutions, said in a statement, \"VMware Integrated OpenStack 5 will enable customers to achieve the massive scale required to power Telco and private clouds globally, and address NFV and edge computing use cases as telecom networks evolve towards 5G.\"’\nShuttleworth gonna Shuttleworth: “If you want OpenStack and Kubernetes support with vendor independence at a low price, Canonical is your company. If you prefer a partner, which offers a soup-to-nuts stack, but at a higher price, look to Red Hat. And, of course, if you're already wedded to VMware, you've made your choice. There's room for all these approaches to the 21st century cloud and containers.”\nOver on TechCrunch, in his layup, Frederic Lardinois paints a picture of the current Story of OpenStack.\n\n\n“That current state produces fewer flashy headlines, but every survey, both from the Foundation itself and third-party analysts, show that the number of users — and their OpenStack clouds — continues to grow.”\nMirantis, after $200m in funding, refocusing(?) on CI/CD with Spinnaker support, “shrunk from almost 1,000 employees to 450 today, but as Mirantis CEO and co-founder Boris Renski told me, it’s now cash-flow positive.”\nBoris: “I think that Spinnaker should become part of the Foundation. That’s the opportunity and I think it should focus 150 percent of their energy on that before it builds its own thing and before [Spinnaker] goes off to the CNCF as yet another project.”\n\nCaroline Donnelly covers the quest to become a more general foundation for infrastructure stuff, started in 2015 with “The Big Tent” positioning.\nSide-note: Donnely’s and Lardinois’s articles are good example of doing good tech journalism (I mean, I always like more charts and TAM’s, but they don’t really do that over art Oath - could have also gotten a paragraph of “the kubernetes threat” backed up by usage momentum surveys - but, hey! - pretty good all around.).\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nCoté’s three methods of dealing with grumpy people when you’re digital transforming and DevOps’ing all the things, the The Register.\nAll these GDPR emails. Oh for fuck’s sake! (Cf. Jon Collins interview.)\nWhat does Terraform do again? When is that company going to be acquired?\nCan IT finally deliver innovation without busting its own budget? Docker's CEO says yes.\nRed Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst On How He Plans To Win The Container Market.\nDocker, Inc. still on that cost take-out strategy:\n\n\n“What we’re seeing at companies like MetLife or Northern Trust is they’re taking their app and infrastructure management cost, and cutting it in half. Let’s say that you can cut 50 million dollars out of your app and infrastructure management cost, which by the way, some of our customers are at. That’s 50 million dollars you can go spend on innovation. That’s not going to the CEO and saying look, I need another hundred million dollars in my budget. That’s freeing up 50-100 million dollars of your existing budget.”\nBro. So the message is “Docker will cut $50m [annually?] out of your IT budget.” $12.5m a quarter in extra cash? That kind of shit could make quarterly numbers. Could that even be real? Bruh.\n\nSalesforce.com, Inc. CRM: MuleSoft, Revisited - Mule “application integration revenue could quickly scale to $1B+” over next 2 to 3 years.\nGoogle Cloud Platform breaks into leader category in Gartner's Magic Quadrant.\n\n\nGoogle reps breath a sigh of relief.\n\n\n\n\nWeekly “get off my lawn” segment, monitoring corner edition\n\n\nSensu overvu.\nFlat vs. hierarchical - You’ll always end up with a reverse tree, complete with those little plus signs at each leaf to expand what’s under it.\n\n\n\n\n\nImportant nonsense\n\n\nDaily Deal: Nope Portable Sound Microphone Blockers 2-Pack\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nMay 29th, 2018 - Coté speaking at DevOps meetup in Seoul.\nMay 31st, 2018 - Coté speaking at DevOps Singapore Meetup.\nJune 1st, 2018 - Coté speaking at Voxxed Days, Singapore.\nJune 28th and 29th, 2018 - Coté at DevOpsDays Amsterdam - come get a sticker!\nSep 24th to 27th - SpringOne Platform, in DC/Maryland (crabs!) get $200 off registration with the code S1P200_Cote.

It’s DC/OS’es all the way down.\n(I’m glad they linked to the wikipedia definition for “lingua franca.”)\nAs Kubernetes grows, a startup ecosystem develops in its wake\nThis about 1/3 of what a good, internal strategy memo would be. Needs market-sizing, forecasts, and, well, more numbers. If it also said what action to take, you’d have most of it there.\nIs K8s Too Complicated? \nAWS Won Serverless – now all your software are kinda belong to them\nYou know what old Jack Burton always says in a time like this: “I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE HELL THAT MEANS!”\n\"We can't be more than one to two years from Amazon hitting that 2 per cent of the serverless (i.e. platform) market. Which means, if you're going to counter play then NOW (not six months later) is the time to be dropping $5 to $10bn on that counter play.\"\nSee also…\nServerless is going to crush Kubernetes (but only in a theoretical world which doesn’t actually exist) - oh boy…\nCoreOS Is New Linux, Not A RHEL Classic Killer: ‘Importantly, the OpenShift platform cloud software, which included Red Hat’s own implementation of the Kubernetes container controller, will be deployable on either the full-on Red Hat Enterprise Linux in pets mode or the minimalist Red Hat CoreOS in cattle mode. But it will be using the Tectonic version of the Kubernetes controller going forward as well as integrating the Prometheus monitoring tool and etcd for storing telemetry. Gracely tells The Next Platform that the implementation of Kubernetes had outside dependencies such as the CloudForms hybrid cloud management tool (formerly ManageIQ) and was not “native” to Kubernetes in the same way that Tectonic is, meaning free of outside dependenies.’\nDeveloper Advocate Wars / Arms Race - outward and inner…kingmakers\nGoogle now says controversial AI voice calling system will identify itself to humans - that sort of defeats the whole point.\n\n\nImportant nonsense\n\n\nLong, loooooong MAN!\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nMay 22 to 25, ChefConf 2018, in Chicago.\nJune 1st, 2018 - Coté speaking at Voxxed Days, Singapore.\nAlso, Coté doing some meetups in Korea (May 29th) and Singapore (May 31st), URLs pending.\nSep 24th to 27th - SpringOne Platform, in DC/Maryland (crabs!) get $200 off registration with the code S1P200_Cote.\n\n\nListener Feedback\n\n\nColin from Scotland got a sticker.

More: “Dropbox has taken just over 10 years to go public since its founding in 2007, which we attribute to anxiety over its high private valuation, a sizable profitability gap, and the dour outlook often associated with the EFSS segment.”\nMore from 451: “Its net loss ($111m) shrank by nearly half from 2016 – a faster pace than its topline growth. Its relative sales and marketing costs are lower than most of its peers. The vendor spent 28% of its revenue on sales and marketing – half the level of Box, a fellow FSS compatriot that's half the size as Dropbox.\" Man, think of the shit-per diem an travel policies for last year.\nE.g., who knew they were so widely used by normals?! 11m+ paying users, they says. (But, it’s 45 to 1 free to pay.)\nDo we think GDrive/G Suite is this big? I mean, it must be at least once you throw in Docs and GMail.\n\n\nGartner’s 2016 estimates: “$1.3 billion in G Suite sales ranked a distant No. 2 behind Office’s $13.8 billion, according to 2016 data from Gartner.” Checks out.\n\n\n\nTech Co.’s using Google Cloud\n\n\nApple on Google for iCloud (but also AWS for the same), Spotify on Google, Dropbox on their own cloud (see Ben’s “turns out!” analysis).\nDoes this matter for normals?\n“Dropbox is likely an outlier with its successful cloud data migration off AWS.”\nWired’s write-up on the migration from 2016 \n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nPants are sized wrong.\nDTrace going GPL-compatible\nArrested DevOps talking with Andrew Shafer and Bryan Cantrill\nThe ongoing nothingburger of blockchain-beyond-bitcoin: \n\n\n“The only mass-market use of blockchain technology right now is bitcoin, and you can certainly debate just how widespread a market that really is. Lots of people are interested in blockchain’s distributed ledger system as a potential way to cut out the middleman in transactions between manufacturers or retailers and their suppliers, but the number of people actually using blockchain technology for those types of services right now is quite small.”\nMore: “The entire market for blockchain services in 2017 — and not necessarily cloud vendor-provided blockchain services — sits at $708 million, according to a report from WinterGreen Research cited by The Information. By comparison, Gartner said last September that it expects cloud services revenue will have reached $260.2 billion in 2017.”\nWinterGreen, sittin’ in hot tubs, smokin’ those L’s: “In that report, WinterGreen also predicts astounding growth of 757 percent in that blockchain market by 2024 to $60.7 billion, which is among the most dramatic forward-looking statements I’ve seen in a while.”\n\nThe concept of the millennial is dead. Time to start complaining and belly-aching about how simpering and fucked up the current generation of The Kids are.\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nMarch 9th to 13th, SXSW - Brandon in Austin giving out stickers.

Automated operations have been a key focus of the latest CoreOS Tectonic update, with capabilities such as automated patching, failover and high availability and automated cluster deployment included.”\nCoreOS describes itself: “CoreOS is the creator of CoreOS Tectonic, an enterprise-ready Kubernetes platform that provides automated operations, enables portability across private and public cloud providers, and is based on open source software. It also offers CoreOS Quay, an enterprise-ready container registry. CoreOS is also well-known for helping to drive many of the open source innovations that are at the heart of containerized applications, including Kubernetes, where it is a leading contributor; Container Linux, a lightweight Linux distribution created and maintained by CoreOS that automates software updates and is streamlined for running containers; etcd, the distributed data store for Kubernetes; and rkt, an application container engine, donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), that helped drive the current Open Container Initiative (OCI) standard.”\nSynergy Corner! All ‘bout that k8s: “Kubernetes is a leading container orchestration tool for organizations of all sizes, on its way to potentially becoming as ubiquitous as Linux….We are thrilled to continue this mission at Red Hat and work to accelerate bringing enterprise-grade containerized infrastructure and automated operations to customers.” But they also throw in that original mission: “our mission to make the internet more secure through automated operations.”\n451: “Red Hat will continue to support CoreOS customers as it integrates Tectonic and other CoreOS technology into its own offerings, primarily OpenShift. Red Hat also indicates it will open-source the Tectonic software as it has with previously acquired technologies.”\nMore on what Red Hat will do with it: “Red Hat intends to leverage the CoreOS Tectonic container stack to bolster and enhance OpenShift and RHEL capabilities. In particular, Red Hat says the deal will help it to improve security of container and cluster deployments, enable portability of container applications across hybrid cloud infrastructures and further drive ease of use and automation in its software.”\nCombined market-share. This is based off early, CNCF surveys and such, but it’s likely a fine wet-finger-in-the-wind, from The New Stack: “Our analysis of a CNCF survey provides some answers. Out of the 34 CoreOS Tectonic users identified, five also use Red Hat’s OpenShift. Thus, the combined entity would still have just 14% of respondents using it to manage containers. Only 4 percent of Docker Swarm users said they also used Tectonic.”\nWut?: “According to a 451 Research Advisors project survey of 201 enterprise IT decision-makers at large container-using organizations in April and May 2017, three-quarters [75%] of them indicated that container management and orchestration software, such as Kubernetes, is sufficient to replace private cloud software, such as OpenStack or VMware. “\nBad day for beards.\nCoté wrote a the first 451 report on them in 2014 - ain’t he precious!\nThe wikibon crew says little revenue traction, and has a diagram.\nSome contributor boasting:\n\nMore coverage: The Register, click-slides at CRN. \n\n\nThe Heptio kubernetes distro…or not?\n\n\nHeptio releases it’s managed kubernetes service (I get that right?) - how’d that Bluebox business work out?\nOr, wait, no: I think in this case, sometimes a distro’s just a distro….plz advise.\nOfficial page, with a link to a PDF, even!\nMulti-cloud positioning (they even italicized it!): “Just as container technology took off in large part to organizations’ move to the cloud, Kubernetes’ continued proliferation can be attributed to the growing importance of multi-cloud. Beyond the threat of lock-in to a single cloud provider — which is real — organizations need the flexibility to deploy applications in the environment where they are best suited. Kubernetes provides the right level of abstraction to deploy applications on a cloud solution and to an environment that looks and behaves the same on-premises.”\n# TAM: Container Cash Context\n“451 Research's Market Monitor expects the application container market to be worth $1.6bn in 2018 with a CAGR of 36% through 2021,” Al and Jay in the CoreOS acquisition write-up.\n Also: We now estimate total app container market revenue at just over $1.1bn for '17, growing at a CAGR of 35% to $1.6bn in '18. \nAnd some 451 numbers, from a recent webinar:\n\nNarrowing down to “orchestration”:\n\nThe rest of the taxonomy, numbers not in slides:\n\n\n\nAWS snubs healthcare industry\n\n\nNot exactly the intended headline, I know. \n”They decided their combined access to data about how consumers make choices, along with an understanding of the intricacies of health insurance, would inevitably lead to some kind of new efficiency — whatever it might turn out to be.” And also speculation of lame things like making booking doctors easier.\nJust lookin’ to make things cheaper, no big deal. \nNo details, but a theory: “Based on the executives who have been named to top roles at the new company, Jefferies & Co. analyst Brian Tanquilut said there is a good chance it will eventually try to negotiate prices directly with health care providers like hospitals, bypassing companies that act as middlemen.”\nBen’s on that aggregation theory shit: ‘The key words there are “commoditize and modularize”, and this is where the option I dismissed above comes into play, but not in the way most think: Amazon doesn’t create an insurance company to compete with other insurance companies (or the other pieces of healthcare infrastructure); rather, Amazon makes it possible — and desirable — for individual health care providers to come onto their platform directly, be that doctors, hospitals, pharmacies, etc…. After all, if Amazon is facilitating the connection to patients, what is the point of having another intermediary? Moreover, by virtue of being the new middleman, Amazon has the unique ability to consolidate patient data in a way that is not only of massive benefit to patients and doctors but also to the application of machine learning.’\nThe upshot of all of this, at the moment, is that there were no details given and much fan-boy speculation typed up. Which is fine, please fix US healthcare.\nA perfectly done story from NY Times: lots of context, much speculation, and all sorts of input. \n\n\nRelative to your interests\n\n\nKuCisco - Cisco wants some of that sweet Kubernetes Kash: “The company said the Container Platform takes care of the “setup, orchestration, authentication, monitoring, networking, load balancing and optimization” of containers. Deployment of containers is also simplified through automation, as the platform takes care of the most repetitive tasks in this process. It can also be extended to other important aspects of IT, such as networking, security and more, officials said.”\nPrivate cloud boosters have a new URL to point to: “The era of the cloud’s total dominance is drawing to a close.”\nSorry to make you look at this guy, but split view on the iPad is pretty cool, email and Newsify works too!\n\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nCoté talking at DevOpsDays Charlotte, Feb 22nd to 23rd.\nMay 15th to 18th, 2018 - Coté talking EA at Continuous Lifecycle London.\n\n\nSDT news & hype\n\n\nCheck out Software Defined Interviews, our new podcast.

Everyone’s freaking out about tech companies. What they mean by “tech companies,” of course is the combination of Facebook, Google, Twitter, Amazon, and maybe Netflix. They (mostly) mean companies who are using tech to disrupt their industries (media, retail, entertainment) and using the business models of tech companies. The line is, to be sure, fuzzy, but these are not companies that make their money from selling hardware, software, or even IT services (like Microsoft, Oracle, Red Hat, SAP, Pivotal, etc.).

\n\n

This week, we look at one write-up of this freaking out from The Economist. They also have a smaller version in their “Leaders” section. As always, there are much more extensive, detailed show notes available as well.

More importantly, how would you exploit it and protect yourself from it. This week, we talk about All The Great Chip Problems. And we also discuss some recent IT spending and forecasts, including survey results going over public versus private cloud deployments. There’s also some home automation (IoT!) talk, namely, Coté needs to find the problem this great solution solves.\n\nPre-roll SDT news & hype\n\n\nCanceled: Jan 16th, first Live Recording in Austin Texas - guest co-host Tasty Meats Paul.\nKeep up with the weekly newsletter. For example, a few issues back Coté went over some book recommendations based on what he read in 2017.\nJoin us in Slack, subscribe the newsletter, and pay-up for our members only podcast.\nBuy some t-shirts!\nStickers - write us in the contact form or email us, send name and address mailing address.\n\n\nWemo IoT\n\n\nAll the devices - plugs, dimmers, HomeKit bridge (HomeKit is kinda garbage).\nThere’s plenty of IFTTT applets that do Wemo things, but…are they useful?\n\n\nThose chip problems - what would you use them for?\n\n\nWhat’s this mean?\nAnother Y2K? The world didn’t seem to end, so are we good?\nThe Register coverage, lots of gobbly-gook. \nTPM estimates cost to IT departments to deal with it.\nSuspicious stock sale, or maybe he just needed a new winter home. \nWhat are people doing with exploits?\n\n\nMore IT spending in 2018, public cloud use growing\n\n\n451 and IDC have some cloud forecast numbers out.\n\n\nEnt. software growth.\nTrad’l IT shrinking, but not too fast 451 days private cloud still the winner, but barely.\n\n451 tracks by survey with plans to put workloads across the different types of infrastructure:\n\nPaaS in not included (see a recent round-up of PaaS market-sizings, tho), but for 2019: public cloud totals ~37% (or 46.3% if you included hosted), private cloud 53.6%\nIDC’s tracks hardware spend:\n\nMeanwhile, an analyst says Azure had a gain on AWS in Q4: “Amazon Web Services had 62 percent market share in the quarter, down from 68 percent a year earlier, KeyBanc's Brent Bracelin and other analysts wrote in a note on Thursday. Microsoft Azure jumped from 16 percent to 20 percent, and Google's share increased from 10 percent to 12 percent, they said.”\nAlso, more spending forecasts from Gartner:\n\nThe move to SaaS continuing: “Organizations are expected to increase spending on enterprise application software in 2018, with more of the budget shifting to software as a service (SaaS). The growing availability of SaaS-based solutions is encouraging new adoption and spending across many subcategories, such as financial management systems (FMS), human capital management (HCM) and analytic applications.”\nReally, doesn’t that make the most sense for where to spend most of your priority? Clears out the under-brush. Perhaps there should be a split between “innovation” (customer IT) and “keep the lights on.” I often think bi-modal got lost in that distinction.\nHey, that sounds like Big Data! ‘\"Looking at some of the key areas driving spending over the next few years, Gartner forecasts $2.9 trillion in new business value opportunities attributable to AI by 2021, as well as the ability to recover 6.2 billion hours of worker productivity,\" said Mr. Lovelock. \"That business value is attributable to using AI to, for example, drive efficiency gains, create insights that personalize the customer experience, entice engagement and commerce, and aid in expanding revenue-generating opportunities as part of new business models driven by the insights from data.\"’\n451’s surveys show more IT spending too: “fully 50% of the 872 respondents said their company is giving a ‘green light’ for IT spending. That was the highest reading since 2007, and 13 basis points higher than the average survey response for the month of November for the previous five years” \n\n\nThe exciting world of monitoringobservability\n\n\nWith Loggly, SolarWinds scoops up another log service: “With the acquisition of Loggly, SolarWinds obtains an asset that was slow in getting started but has hit a patch of growth recently. As of September, we believe the company was on track to finish 2017 with roughly $10m in billings, up from mid-single digits in 2016. Founded in 2009 with a mission of offering a SaaS-based, easy-to-use logging product with helpful visualizations built using advanced analytics, Loggly had raised $47m in venture capital, including a $11.5m series D round in June 2016.” They estimate ~3,000 paying customers.\nMicrosoft gets serious about monitoring, pulling together it’s different things Nancy at 451 reports: “Microsoft's vision is to deliver tools that can offer a holistic view of services to application architects looking to optimize their software; performance information and debugging capabilities for DevOps and ops pros; insight into KPIs for executives; and information about customer usage to product owners. Microsoft doesn't yet have a cohesive offering for all of the above, but it has the pieces to enable it and has begun delivering on some integrations across products.”\nYou may recall that Datadog acquired Logmatic.io back in the Fall.\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nAnnual Letter from Planet Earth, Scott Galloway: a pretty good moral tent-pole for tech.\nFeel like a little kid in the container world? Welcome to the club: “industry adoption more accurately reflected in 451 Research's survey data that pegs adoption at 27 per cent. Of those 27 per cent of enterprises that have container religion, just 52 per cent are running containers in production, according to the same survey. In other words, a mere 13.5 per cent (or so) of enterprises are running containers in production.”\nFinally, an explanation of that Cisco/Google partnership: “CloudCenter is key to the hybrid cloud partnership that Cisco and Google recently announced, where CloudCenter will be used to integrate Google Cloud Platform services with on-premises datacenters. The integrated offering includes Cisco's Hyperflex hyperconverged infrastructure and Nexus 9k networking. Cisco is also leveraging its networking (CSR) and security (Stealthwatch Cloud) portfolio to ensure a consistent environment across the hybrid cloud. Google's Kubernetes container runtime uses Apigee to consume and manage APIs, as well as Google's range of cloud services, including machine learning and visual recognition. The open source Istio service management platform is key to the offering, supported in CloudCenter, providing traffic management, observability, policy enforcement and service identity and security for microservices. There will also be integrations to AppDynamics. Solution engineering efforts are underway, and Cisco and Google are working on predefined statements of work that can be executed by both companies' direct sales teams and by the partner channels. The joint offering will be fully supported by the Cisco Technical Assistance Center. The Cisco-Google partnership on hybrid cloud is non-exclusive, but Google is working closely with Cisco on the joint engineering work around open hybrid cloud.”\nTaking Stock of Cloud Application Platforms: basically, he expects it to all go kubernetes. See also this developer-oriented comparison of Pivotal Cloud Foundry and kubernetes.\nIBM combining GBS and GTS. This means consulting/outsourcing and hosting, right? Lots of staff shifting and lay-offs, as The Register reported.\nDropbox to IPO - “doing over $1B in annualized sales and are cash flow positive,” well with some added nuance: “[i]t’s also been profitable, excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. “ $10bn valuation, they say.\nSpeaking of: 20 years of big-ass VC exits.\nWatch out for the Weka, by Ned Barraud, kid's book.\n\n\nConferences, et. al.\n\n\nCoté talking at DevOpsDays Charlotte, Feb 22nd to 23rd.\nMay 15th to 18th, 2018 - Coté talking EA at Continuous Lifecycle London.\n\n\nRecommendations\n\n\nMatt: \n\n\nI Contain Multitudes.\nGoruck Echo Backpack.\n\nBrandon: Wind River.\nCoté: OluKai Moloa Slipper - it says “slipper,” but I feel like it could be an everyday, even EBC shoe.

Still)\nGartner’s mode-salad: “Through 2020, n-tier bimodal workloads will encompass 50% of existing Mode 1 workloads and 80% of new Mode 2 workloads.”\n\n\nI think this means: “50% of old applications will be n-tier, and 80% of new apps will be n-tier,” where “n-tier” means not “client/server, hosted and peer-to-peer architectures.”\n\nServerless, Gartner: “By 2020, 90% of serverless deployments will occur outside the purview of I&O organizations when supporting general-use patterns.”\nThis decade in kubernetes, Gartner: “By 2020, more than 50% of enterprises will run mission-critical, containerized cloud-native applications in production, up from less than 5% today.”\nGartner’s PaaS PDF, someone over there had an SEO-stroke: “Application leaders engaged in digital business transformation must master AI, event-driven design, serverless microservices, IoT and strategic integration to serve their business and customers well. Cloud platform innovation drives business leadership.”\nA good passage on why private PaaS is hard, from PaaS predictions piece: “These [positive, PaaS] capabilities benefit the organizations and are a positive IT development. But they do not alone amount to a cloud experience. Their challenge is typically organizational. A private cloud requires a division of the IT organization into provider and subscribers, and establishment of a strict separation between them via a cloud services portal and suitable cross-charging model. Without a strict adherence to the isolation of providers and subscribers, there cannot be standardization. The self-service is compromised and without resource use tracking, it is hard to achieve the efficiency of elastic autoscaling and elimination of shelf-ware. In most organizations, the leadership is not committed enough to the vision of private cloud to make the difficult and high-risk investment that can stand up to the right organizational framework, policies and practices. Therefore, these PaaS frameworks have justifed their existence mostly through their support of newer cloud-native development models such as DevOps, rather than cloudiness features.”\n\n\nRelevant to your interests\n\n\nShameless Self Promotion: best digital transformation joke of the year.\nTech M&A prioritization, rough overview from 451:\n\n\n\n\n\nForrester Researcher: Containers, PaaS And Managed Private Cloud Will Drive Cloud Adoption Next Year And Beyond - \"It’s a waiting game for a comprehensive management platform.\"\nIDC predicts that in 2018, annual IaaS/PaaS service spending (OpEx) will be equal to new on prem infrastructure spending (CapEx) - “They” say public cloud will over-take private cloud in 2019. Meanwhile: \"In 2018, we expect 40% to 50% of business users to have moved their core collaboration and communications systems to cloud platforms.

Those that do will have a much smaller footprint. It will be a transition and it won’t happen overnight.” Link\nMore: ‘Is Multi-Cloud Real?: “We certainly get asked about it a lot. Most enterprises, when they think about a plan for moving to the cloud, they think they will distribute workloads across a couple of cloud providers. But few actually make that decision because you have to standardize on lowest common denominator when you go multi-cloud. AWS is so far ahead and you don’t want to handicap developer teams. Asking developers to be fluent in multiple cloud platforms is a lot. And all the cloud providers have volume discounts. If you split workloads across multi-cloud, you’re diminishing those discounts. In practice, companies pick a predominate cloud provider for their workloads. And they may have a secondary cloud provider just in case they want to switch providers.’\n\n\n\nAWS re:Invent Preview Review\n\n✔SaaS lunches will be eaten?\n✔Amazon Kubernetes Service?\n\nThis Week in Kubernetes\n\n\nAll about AWS this week!\nWell, GKS did get rid of billing for cluster managers\nCoté finished up this pile of crap (get a preview!) and right after emailing it in was reminded that Ben wrote this up already, plus an update based on re:Invent this week.\n\n\nEnd-roll\n\nConferences\n\n\nCoté’s junk:\n\n\nNEXT WEEK, FOOLS!

(Nerds like to tinker, Google brand? Did the rest of us just need to buy more native advertising in The New Stack?)\n\n\nCisco and Google\n\n\n\n\nNot really sure what this Cisco/Google thing is. What does Cisco bring to the table?\n“Cisco's HyperFlex platform that includes management tools to enforce security and other policies as applications and services are released with greater frequency.”\nPrivate cloud bundling of kubernetes, Istio, all the great cloud natives.\n\"This is what we hear customers ask for,\" Diane Greene.\nBig picture: what’s Google’s goal here? Is it really as simple as “on-ramp?”\nEven bigger picture: how did it kubernetes win?\n\n\nIBM’s private cloud stack\n\n\n\n\nSo, is the “Blue Mix” brand out the mix?\nIBM page: “Overview of IBM Cloud Private.” Another announcement overview.\n“Is built on the latest versions of Kubernetes and Docker” - what that mean?\nJeffrey Burt: “IBM Cloud Private can run on a variety of infrastructures, including the vendor’s own mainframe and Power systems, its hyperconverged infrastructure that runs Nutanix software, and IBM Storage’s Spectrum Access solution. In addition, it can run on systems from Dell EMC, Lenovo, Cisco Systems and NetApp, and can be deployed by such VMware, Canonical and other OpenStack distributions as well as bare-metal systems. The private cloud platform also includes such developer services for data analytics as Db2, Db2 Warehouse, PostgreSQL and MongoDB, developer tools like Netcool, UrbanCode, and Cloud Brokerage and open-source management software such as Jenkins, Prometheus, Grafana, and ElasticSearch.” \nChris Mellor, The Register:\n\n\nAll the great middleware now in (Docker) containers: “IBM has provided containerised versions of WebSphere Liberty and Open Liberty, MQ, and DB2, plus Microservice Builder as software bundle components. For example, Cloud Private for Application Modernization provides Cloud Private capabilities plus WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, MQ Advanced, API Connect Professional, DB2 Direct Advanced and Urban Code Deploy.” \nValue-prop’in! “The standout aim is to help legacy apps transition to a more cloud-native style of construction and operation so that they can run inside a public cloud-like environment on-premises – private cloud – and connect to and/or be integrated with public clouds in some fashion. The destination in IBM's view, of the evolution of legacy apps is the hybrid cloud with private cloud as a stepping stone.”\nThe white papers also mention “regulated industries” and the like.\nGoin’ for that enterprise cloud, hey, boy.\n\nAlso: Coté’s highlights, brief coverage from Tom Krazit at GeekWire.\nAn oral history of “bursting”: from 2010 to 2017.\n\n\nCongress now follows you\n\n\nKind of a dick move to not send the CEOs.\nHoly Shit! “Revealing exactly what was smeared all over the internet during the 2016 elections would, we reckon, be like opening Pandora's box: it would allow citizens to join the dots between Kremlin-crafted lies, the gradual acceptance of those lies online, the discussion and even promotion of said lies on mainstream news networks, resulting in, presumably, dozens of clips of senators responding with indignation about made-up information. In short, everyone is going to look like a chump if it turns out everything argued over last year was based on nothing but Kremlin-devised myths and urban legends. Rumors, in other words, designed to destabilize American politics and perhaps install a preferred candidate in the White House.”\nLooks like my rep has been keeping up on Ben Thompson: ‘Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) asked: \"Why should you be treated any differently to the press?\" All three California outfits responded with a version of the fact that they are \"platforms\" and not publishers, that their content is user-created, and that they protect people's right to free speech and expression. Cornyn made it clear he was not persuaded. \"They may be a distinction lost on most of us,\" he said.’\nSpeaking of…Ben nails the analysis:\n\n\n“Facebook served [an estimated] 276 million unique ads per quarter, and my entire point was the same as Kennedy’s: there is no way that Facebook could ever review every ad, much less investigate who is behind them, without completely ruining their revenue model.”\n‘What this hearing highlighted, though, is the degree to which the position of Facebook in particular has become more tenuous. The fact of the matter is that Facebook (and Google) is more powerful than any entity we have seen before. Magnifying the problem is that, over the last year, Facebook has decided to “take responsibility”, and what is that but a commitment to exercise their control over what people see?’\n\nTech industry doesn’t think/care about the effects of their products\n\n\nhttps://twitter.com/kumailn/status/925828976882282496\n\n\n\nBONUS LINKS! Not covered in show\n\nMongoIPO\n\n\nDon’t hate if you have options.\n## Australasian technology update - what’s the long-term plan at Atlassian?\n\"Revenue climbed 41.7% year over year to $193.8 million.”\nThings are going well down under.\nWell, they do spend as much on R&D as sales & marketing. Compare to Mongo, which is 1:2 or so.\n\n\nMisc\n\n\nUsing the Correct Tool for the Job written by J Asghar\n- Monetizing The Hot Dog - I’m sure the VC stockholders are ecstatic about this development\n\n\nMeta, follow-up, etc.\n\n\nPatreon - like anyone who starts these things, I have no idea WTF it is, if it’s a good idea, or if I should be ashamed.

E.g., hittin’ up that security angle hard-core, talking about easily migrate-n-save for existing apps.\nDave Bartoletti, Forrester: ‘said it's clear that Kubernetes has won at the orchestration layer. \"There's too much mindshare around it,\" he said in a phone interview with The Register. \"There are too many developers who just want this.”’…”Bartoletti said he expects vendors will try to move up the stack by providing security, integration, workflow, and managed services. He said Docker now will be free to focus on trying to be the best container platform for enterprises.”\nLooks like Bartoletti was the analyst sent around, he shows up in other coverage.\nDerrick Harris’s take: “The problem is that it’s difficult to make enterprise sales when users want open source at the lower layers and to pay (real money, at least) at layers they deem more strategic. If that’s Kubernetes, then Docker either needs to support it commercially, or let someone else take all the revenue from the orchestration layer up while Docker keeps on spending money to keep the free part of the puzzle chugging. By supporting Kubernetes as part of Docker Enterprise, it now can make the argument that nobody understands containers better than Docker does, and there’s now no real reason to not pay for its enterprise version.”\nMTA IN DA HIZ-OUSE!\n\n\n“We’ve seen 100 percent success rate for applications that meet our criteria across hundreds of Java and .NET applications. Customers are able to see these results in five days or less.\n“Johnston added that some customers are able to double the release frequency of their software and cut total cost of ownership by 50 percent.”\nSnoopy on that shit: “MetLife applied this modernization pattern in one day to their Java application. They were able to look across their portfolio and identify 600 other applications that fit this pattern, for a 66 percent savings on total cost of ownership. That nets out to millions of dollars at MetLife. They have over 6,000 applications they want to apply this to.”\n\nMeanwhile, earlier this month, more for the whale: “[Docker] has been putting together a $75 million funding round, which would bring the total amount of money raised by the company to $255 million.”\n\n\nIBM Wins the Cloud\n\n\nThat revenue!\nHopefully IBM figures it out.\n\n\nTech people\n\n\nCoté’s Register column this month is on “the skills gap,” hiring in tech.\nCoincidently, there’s also a story on The Olds in tech.\n\n\nBONUS LINKS!

Some Istio mentioning, adding legitimacy to that effort; see Istio discussion in episode #96.\nJames “my flight got canceled” Governor coverage:\n\n\n“enterprises now account for more than 40% of Cloud Foundry’s membership”\n“Kubernetes too is seeing plenty of tyre kicking, but nowhere near the level of enterprise commitment [to Cloud Foundry] at this point.”\n“54% of Cloud Foundry target Amazon Web Services as a platform, that 40% of users are targeting VMware vSphere certainly [i]s” - I assume this is across all distros and OSS, which makes sense. In Pivotal land, it’s mostly on on-premises VMware, last I checked.\n\nHabitat and Cloud Foundry\n\n\nProgramming Languages and Code Quality\n\n\nLarge-scale overview of GitHub projects, their languages and their bug reports\n“The data indicates that functional languages are better than procedural languages; it suggests that disallowing implicit type conversion is better than allowing it; that static typing is better than dynamic; and that managed memory usage is better than unmanaged. Further, that the defect proneness of languages in general is not associated with software domains.”\n\n\nDocker as a cost-cutter\n\n\nTheir CEO says you can slash costs by 50%.\nMeg Whitman says it’s more like 40%.\nBut partners make $7 off of every $1 of Docker spend - does that math work? Scenario:\n\n\nI used to pay $2 for VMware, now I pay $1 for Docker (50% reduction).\nBut it costs me $7 to get there, giving me a one time payment of net $8, and, hopefully, just $1 a year after that? (Never mind opex vs. capex GAAP-crap.)\nSo, then: after 4+ years I’ll start saving money? (with VMware, I would have paid $2/yr., so $8 total, and with Docker over that four year period I pay $8 first year, $1 next three years, so $11 total - hrmm..where’s Excel when you need it?)\n\nFollow-up from 2011: so, Docker really is about replacing VMware…?\nOverall, this interview with Docker’s CEO is good stuff for industry watchers.

Looking at it another way, from the external ‘supervisor’ perspective, I monitor you, but you make yourself Observable.”\nSo, yes: if developers actually make their code monitorable and manageable…easy street! It’s a good detailing of that important part of DevOps.\nCloud Native Java has a good example with the default “observability” attributes for apps, and then an overview of Zipkin tracing.\n\n\nWeekly k8s News\n\n\nHeptio gets funding, now “has raised $33.5 million in funding to date.”\n\n\nI think we’ll cover this press release in a WP episode.\n\nAlso, something called “StackPointCloud” now with the Istio.\nMesosphere adding K8s support - “Guagenti also noted that he believes that Mesosphere is currently a leader in the container space, both in terms of the number of containers its users run in production and in terms of revenue (though the company sadly didn’t share any numbers).”\n\"I think it’s fair to call Kubernetes the de facto standard for how enterprises will do container orchestration,” Derrick Harris.\nIs Kubernetes Repeating OpenStack’s Mistakes? - Boris throwing bombs\nMeanwhile, an abstract of a containers penetration study, from RedMonk: \"Docker, is running at 71% across Fortune 100 companies. Kubernetes usage is running in some form at 54%, and Cloud Foundry usage is at 50%”\nThis update from the Cloud Foundry Foundation is a little more, er, “responsible” in pointing out flaws. Instead it just says there’s lots of growth and tire-kicking: 2016/2017 y/y shows those evaluating containers went up from 31% to 42%, while “using” ticked up a tad from 22% to 25%, n=540.\nOracle’s in the CNCF club! K8s on Oracle Linux, K8s for Oracle Public Cloud. “At this point, there really can’t be any doubt that Kubernetes is winning the container orchestration wars, given that virtually every major player is now backing the project, both financially and with code contributions.”\nJames checks in on Red Hat.\n\n\n\nAcquisitions & more!\n\n\nRackspace acquires Datapipe “The reason we’re buying them is that we want to extend our leadership in multi-cloud services,” Rackspace chief strategy officer Matt Bradley told me. “It’s a sign and signal that we’re going for it.” Bradley expects that the combined company will make Rackspace the largest private cloud player and the largest managed hosting service. \nDatadog acquires Logmatic.io to add log management to its cloud monitoring platform\nPuppet Acquires Distelli, known for their Kubernetes dashboard.\n\n\nJay Lyman at 451.\nSizing Puppet: “The company has grown to more than 500 employees, and has estimated annual revenue in the $100m range.”\nCoverage from Susan Hall: “What we haven’t had up to this point is all the requisite automation for moving infrastructure code and application code through any kind of automated delivery lifecycle” and now they gots that. https://thenewstack.io/puppet-will-extend-infrastructure-automation-capabilities-distelli-acquisition/\n“In May, the company launched its Kubernetes dashboard K8S. It allows users to connect repositories, build images from source, then deploy them to that Kubernetes cluster. You can also set up automated pipelines to push images from one cluster to another, promote software from test/dev to prod, quickly roll back and do all this in the context of one or more Kubernetes clusters… The Kubernetes service is offered as a hosted service or in an on-prem version. It provides notifications through Slack.”\n\nGoogle pays $1.1 billion for HTC team and non-exclusive IP license\n\n\nSecurity Corner\n\n\nThe Apple Effect? — Why BMW might get rid of car keys\nDon’t blame Apache — EQUIFAX OFFICIALLY HAS NO EXCUSE\nIs there anything to do here?

VMware releases it’s SDDC on AWS scheme and Pivotal announces its container service/stack, Pivotal Container Service (PKS). We discuss both, including a meandering overview of what PKS is and some theory about what enterprises actually want with all that VMware in public cloud. Also, the tragic story of airline and hotel upgrades, like pearls to tired business travelers.\n\nMisc.\n\n\nAustralia is bigger than France. Checks out.\nCoté got the SSSS TSA search. What fun!\n\n\nNow you can buy kubernetes from Dell\n\n\n\n\nVMware/Pivotal/Google make a kubo distro. Uses BOSH, NSX, and kubo to setup clusters. Will run on vSphere and Google Cloud, promises to work with other Google Cloud services, be continuously updated to be compatible with GCE containers. Also, VMware storage services and comparability with VMware systems management tools.\nEl Reg coverage, and also from The New Stack.\nTPM: “The private PKS stack will use vSAN for storage, vRealize Automation for orchestration and governance, vCloud Director for provisioning, and vRealize Operations for monitoring. (So, in theory, one could run the PKS stack on the AWS cloud slices that VMware has partnered with Amazon to create, effectively creating a clone of GKE to run on AWS bare metal iron. . . .)”\nMore laundry listing of the parts from Google, that is, Google Cloud services you can use in a PKS environment: BigQuery, Bigtable, Spanner, Storage, SQL, Pub/Sub, Vision API, Speech API, Natural Language API, Translate API.\nA list of capabilities from Cornelia’s(?) talk, and what BOSH does (and, thus, does in k8 management).\nUse it for: “PKS™ is ideal for workloads like Spark and ElasticSearch, and when you need access to infrastructure primitives. Further, use PKS for apps that require specific co-location of container instances, and for those that need multiple port binds.”\n\n\nThe Pod affinity thing here is for when you want to run multiple things grouped together, like with Spark, Elastic Search, etc. where you the different things go together.\n\nMore value-props’ing:\n\n\ni.e., kubernetes on it’s own is hard. \nAs Ramji points out, PKS means you’ll get a consistent, standardized kubernetes/container technology across the Dell Technologies portfolio.\nWatters lays it out.\n\nPositioning: guidance seems to be that PKS is mostly for large organizations, “enterprises.”\nPKS to GA in 2017Q4, pricing then too.\nDiagram here:.\nSome vendor exec story-time here, and Pivotal blog post.\nSo, you can run PCF and PKS side-by-side.\nSee longer explanation from Chad Sakac:\n\n\n“historically, [Dell Technologies’] point of view on the container/cluster manager abstraction ecosystem wasn’t clear”\n\nSee also this pro'er diagram.\nLots of emphasize on a unified, compatible approach/GTM: “We now have a Cloud Native/Digital Transformation stack where there is a SINGLE target we are furiously running towards now as VMware, Pivotal, and Dell EMC – no mis-alignment, no differences in PoV. “\n\nMarket context: \n\n\nYou may recall Coté’s summary of the CoreOS commissioned 451 survey, which linked to a 2016(?) Gartner survey where 18% of respondents had containers in production, with 4% being “significant production”\nThat CoreOS/451 survey had a very important footnote: the survey respondents were already running containers already. It was more about which container orchestration platforms they liked.\nIt was hard to do conclusive ranking of container orchestrators since people were using multiple ones. But, if you lump together CoreOS’s kubernetes distro with generic kubernetes, kubernetes wins out over Docker Swarm, 49% vs. 36%.\nMeanwhile: “By 2020, 50%+ of global enterprises will be running containerized applications in production, up from <20% today.”\n\nRedMonk’s “developers are the kingmakers” theory, more.\n\n\nSDDC on VMware\n\n\nRun the VMware stack on AWS, out of beta: “For the IT and software development sectors, the deal means that VMware mainstays such as all its software-defined data center ware—vCenter, NSX, vSphere, VSAN and others—will run on AWS instead of VMware's own cloud.”\nPricing?\n”The three-year contract costs $109,366 per host, which would save about 50% compared to the on-demand hourly billing rate, according to VMware. Another program can cut costs by up 25% based on their on-premises VMware product licenses, as long as those on-premises products remain active…. There are separate charges for IP and data transfers, as the standard AWS egress fees still apply. Each host has 2 CPUs, 36 cores, 72 hyper-threads, 512 GiB RAM and local flash storage.” - ”the estimated total cost of ownership for VMware Cloud on AWS is up to $0.09 per VM per hour, according to VMware”\nMore pricing info from TPM: “The base on demand price for this server is $8.3681 per hour, which works out to around $6,109 per month.”\nCloud-context, from Derrick Harris: “Look at the companies’ most-recent fiscal years—2016—during which VMware grew about 9 percent to just over $7 billion in revenue, while AWS grew about 45 percent to more than $12.2 billion in revenue. It’s on pace for about $16 billion in revenue in 2017.”\nAnd, more from Derrick on public cloud companies ever elusive quest to grab on-premises workloads and revenue: “There will continue to be a lot of big workloads running inside company data centers. If AWS and Google really want a shot at owning them, they’ll probably need to get their hands (and code) a little dirty by going to where those applications live and showing there’s a better way of doing things.”\nIt makes you wonder if a strategy for public cloud companies going behind-the-firewall is just wishful projection on the on-premise set’s part. 451 surveys a predicting that by 2019, 60% of work-loads will run on cloud technologies (across public, hosted, and private), with under 25% on private cloud (hosted/managed and on-premises).\n\n\nVMworld, in general\n\n\nRound-up of news from Larry Dignan - lot’s of security stuff, of which Coté has no clue. And, of course, the VDI/desktop stuff. It’s like the old Project Octopus era vision of VMware.\nDelving into VMware financials, and some product portfolio strategy typing.\nVIO, VMware’s OpenStack distro has a few production users, but, “for the most part customers are deploying it for their development and test environments, where programmers want to embrace OpenStack and the IT managers want to keep everything on a VMware substrate”\nVIO pricing: “The other thing that is new with VIO 4.0 is that it is no longer free. Starting with this release, VIO will cost $995 per server socket in a Datacenter Edition, but customers who are using VIO in conjunction with the vRealize management suite will be able to get it for $495 per socket. That is just the price of the perpetual license; reckon another 18 percent or so on top of that for annual support.”\nChad Sakac explains all the stacks, how it does hybrid cloud, etc.\n\n\nBONUS LINKS!

Basho reports similar numbers this time around, except with a higher average deal size among its customer base. Average deal size is greater than $100,000, with high single-digit-customer deals exceeding $1m in total contract value. From 2014-2015, Basho reported a 50% increase in total contract value, a 45% increase in billings and a 50% increase in growth revenue.”\nLet’s do math...so...oh wait, left my Monte Carlo simulator in my other car.\nProducts: “While both products share some underlying commonalities, they both address certain use cases.

Basho points out the product's resiliency and scaling capabilities, with integrations to Spark and Redis. Riak TS, on the other hand, is a database geared toward time-series data, with an emphasis on IoT use cases. Specifically, Riak TS can be used for gathering weather, seismic and traffic data, as well as for financial trading data.

Those charges will be included in customers’ invoices for their overall use of Microsoft’s public cloud platform.”\nHardware via partners: “The exact pricing for Azure Stack hardware, including support contracts, will be up to each individual manufacturer. Microsoft is working with Dell EMC, Lenovo, HPE, Cisco, and Huawei to make the hardware available, and the first machines should be available in September.”\nIDC estimates private cloud HW at $34bn or so runrate (based on 3Q2016 estimates), with 8% q/q growth. So, not too shabby there. This doesn’t include software, Microsoft’s take.\nScott Guthrie: “We talked to lots of customers who said, please don’t do that [allow so much customization that it's hard to debug problems]. The model we came up with instead was to work with a large spectrum of hardware providers, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Cisco and Huawei. Those are the five largest server manufacturers in the world. They will have systems that start with three nodes, not massive big purchases, that you can unbox and plug in. And have a fully working cloud in a day or two. Regardless of whom you call, we own the whole solution.”\nPivotal Cloud Foundry will run on it\nMicrosoft has a rocky road of delivering on private cloud. But, I’d wager the get it this time.\nWe discussed this on the most recent Pivotal Conversations, along with other delightful ephemera.\n\n\nK8s Days May Be Numbered\n\n\nMatt Asay strikes again!\nFunny how OpenStack is now a cautionary tale. See Coté’s weasly, non-position on OpenStack in his May Register column.\nI thought Cote’ was going to write this one up? (see below)\n“Whitepaper review” a la The Weeds! \n\n\nYou have to be careful how you read that 451 survey.\nOn Asay’s 71%, Coté wrote: On that note, it’s easy to misread the widely quoted finding of “[n]early three-quarters (71 percent) of respondents indicated they are using Kubernetes” as meaning only Kubernetes. Actually, people are using many of them at once. The report clarifies this: “The fact that almost 75% of organizations reported using Kubernetes while the same group also reported significant use of other container management and orchestration software is evidence of a mixed market.”\nRead: they’re trying everything. Nothing has won yet. Proving Asay’s point, but also defanging his link-bait lead.\n“It seem far-fetched that Kubernetes could be heading for a fall” - there is no fall to be had because ascension hasn’t yet begin.\nThe core base of 201 people are organizations already using containers, so it doesn’t include organizations not using containers.\nIn a broader survey (where, presumably, not every enterprise was already using containers), of 300+ enterprises, production container use was: 19% in initial production, 8% were in broad production implementation.\nThis isn’t to say there hasn’t been huge growth in this space, but it’s the huge growth of small numbers.\nThis survey (though sponsored by CoreOS - I’m always suspicious of sponsored surveys, having worked on them myself!) is definitely worth paying attention to (as well as ongoing 451 and Gartner work here). Just make sure you read it right and don’t get too excited.\nSee Coté’s Notebook for more.\n\n(Related: I’ve been thinking we should do special, “paid members only” [in Patreon?] “whitepaper review” episodes. Because, let’s be honest: only people who liked us enough to pay would be interested in that.)\nAlright, now some vendor-sports:\n\n\nSo, can a vendor be successful if they “chase” the standards? Do you need to be in OpenWhisk, and OCI shit to operate in this space? Do you need to be Java EE compliant?\nThere may be no money in OSS, but maybe it’s the kingmaker, to steal O’Grady’s line.\n\n\n\nBONUS LINKS! Not covered in show.\n\nCould Facebook run on AWS?\n\n\nLots of fun speculation with sizes of services and numbers of servers.\nFrom now on, this is the only content to send to people asking about running private cloud.\n“In the real world it clearly wouldn’t make sense for Facebook to migrate over to AWS.“\nFirst of all...\nAs John Willis would say, “I wanna be Ashlee Vance when I grow up.” Look at that guy: he’s kickin’ it no undershirt with the button-up style. Writes for Bloomberg, and only let’s just enough sass through in his tone to keep his broad, concise appeal but still have style that harkens back to his Register days.\n\n\nAnd he wrote that Elon Musk book. CASH MONEY!\nSecond: “serverless is someone else’s server” manifest in 3D\nThird, a lot of people ask me, “Coté, how do I get a job like yours?” Writing a lot of posts like this is one answer.\n\n\n\nThriving in a “Post AWS World”\n\n\nLink\n“Why You Can Have the Advantages and Still Not Win”\nTouches on some of the previous conversations of anti-trust, how do you operate with a Goliath in your market?\n\n\nDistributions are Becoming Irrelevant\n\n\nLink\n“The distribution users are, for most of the biggest projects, sysadmins.”\nNice history of how developers and distros have long been at odds. \nCoté: I recall reading this. Did I get the summary right? \ngems show that people will subvert the gate-keeper of being in the distro, thus, there is no power of a distro: people will just assemble whatever they want. Docker x10’s this.\nLinux distro people fight too much and are, sort of, bags of dicks that are making the evolution of distros slow and further irrelevant. Hey, guys, “can’t we all just get along?”\n\n\nFuture of Serverless?\n\n\nLink - that’s a helluva headline..\nWho can take on Lambda?

One of them will die sooner.\nVoice, image recognition, etc.\nChina is pretty much a mature market, and it’s huge.\nIndia has potential, but doing business there is hard and you need more Internet in a pocket rollout.\nThe public/private cloud debate is still far from over.\nBut, AWS, Microsoft, and Google have pretty much won.\nBonus: there’s surprisingly little funding and exits this year.\n\nWould Amazon sell some private clouds?\n\n\nIsotoner and Hephaestus - All the new container orchestration poop\n\n\nCoté: Catching up on all this week's container poop & as always, my first reaction is “oh, I thought the existing stuff did all that already..so.\"\nManaged service for Tectonic as a Service - so, keeping your Kubernates cluster software updated? Presumably enforcing config, etc?\n\n\nHowever, not all done, still working on the complete solution.\nBut, there’s an etcd thing ‘As a first step, Tectonic 1.6.4 will offer the distributed etcd key-value data store as a fully managed cloud service. “It’s the logical one to offer first because it is everything else gets built on it,” Polvi explained. The data store “guarantees that data is in a consistent state for very specific operations,” he said, referring to how etcd can be essential for operations such as database migrations.’\nAnother etcd description: “etcd is a clustered database that prizes consistency above partition tolerance… Interestingly, at Google, chubby is most frequently accessed using an abstracted File interface that works across local files, object stores, etc. The highly consistent nature, however, provides for strict ordering of writes and allows clients to do atomic updates of a set of values.\nSo, you need locks for - dun-dun-dun! - transactions! Queue JP lecturing me in 2002.\n\nThen there’s Istio: \n\n\nIstio?!\nWhao! Check out the exec-pitch: “ Istio gives CIOs a powerful tool to enforce security, policy and compliance requirements across the enterprise.” And Google: “Through the Open Service Broker model CIOs can define a catalog of services which may be used within their enterprise and auditing tools to enforce compliance.”\n\n\nI love their idea of what a CIO does.\n\n“An open platform to connect, manage, and secure microservices“\nSDN++ overlay for container orchestrators from Google, IBM & Lyft - once you control the network with the “data plane,” you add in the “control plane” which allows you to control the flow and shit of the actual microservices.\nTackling the “new problems emerge due to the sheer number of services that exist in a larger system. Problems that had to be solved once for a monolith, like security, load balancing, monitoring, and rate limiting need to be handled for each service.”\nAnd, you know, all the agnostic, multi-cloud, open stuff.\nThankfully, they didn’t use a bunch of garbage, nonsense names for things.\nLet’s look at the docs (BTW, can you kids start just putting out PDFs instead of only these auto-generated from markdown web pages?):\n\n\nFirst of all, these are good docs.\nMonkey-patching for the container era: “You add Istio support to services by deploying a special sidecar proxy throughout your environment that intercepts all network communication between microservices, configured and managed using Istio’s control plane functionality.”\nThe future! Where we all shall live! “Istio currently only supports service deployment on Kubernetes, though other environments will be supported in future versions.”\nProblems being solved, aka, “ways you must be this tall to ride the microservices ride”: “Its requirements can include discovery, load balancing, failure recovery, metrics, and monitoring, and often more complex operational requirements such as A/B testing, canary releases, rate limiting, access control, and end-to-end authentication.”\nAlso: Traffic Management, Observability, Policy Enforcement, Service Identity and Security.\nDoes it have the part where it reboots/fixes failed services for you?\nSo: \n\n\nyou monkey-patch all this shit in (er, sorry, “sidecar”), \nwhich controls the network with SDN shit, \nIstio-Manager + Envoy does all your load-balancing/circuit breaker/canary/AB shit, service discovery/registry, service versioning (i.e., running n+1 different versions of code - always a pretty cool feature), configuring “routes,” what connects to what, \nI don’t think it provides a service registry/discover service? Maybe just a waffer thin API (“a platform-agnostic service discovery interface”)?\nQuestion: what does this look like in your code? \n\n\nThe thing 12 factor-style passes a configuration into your actual code. Here, you’re adding a bunch of name/value pairs (which can be nested) and also translating them to the name/value pairs that your code is expecting...on an HTTP call? Executing a command in your container? As ENV vars?\nAnd then, I think you finally get ahold of the network to reply back with some HTML, JSON, or some sort of HTTP request by ., \n\n\n\n\nSo, big questions, aka, Coté mental breakdown that only Matt Ray can cure:\n\n\nEr...so this all really is a replacement for the VMware stack, right? And OpenStack? Or do you still need those. What the fuck is all this stuff? It just installs the Docker image on a server? And then handles multi-zone replication, and making sure config drift is handles (bringing up failed nodes, too)?\nSo, it’s just cheaper and more transparent than VMware?\nWhat’s the set of shit one needs? Ubuntu, Moby Engine (?), Moby command line tools, etcd? Actuality kubernetes code? What’s Swarm do? And then there’s monitoring, which according to Whiskey Charity, is all shit, right?\nWhere’ my fucking chart on this shit?\nPlease write two page memo for the BoD by 2pm today.\n\nMeanwhile: Oracle’s cool with it, “WTF is a microservice”, compared to SOA/ESB and RESTful, and James Governor tries to explain it all.\n\n\nBONUS LINKS!

The company says its experience supporting software deployments in production is among its key differentiators, helped by the use of Apache Mesos by companies such as Twitter, Netflix, Airbnb, PayPal and Yelp, which was featured in a 451 User Deployment Report. Mesosphere says its focus is customer deployments of 500-1,000 nodes per day in production. It also says the bulk of its customers are licensees with professional services accounting for less than 10% of its clients, which tend to move to its subscription software.”\n\n\nTrumpTech, aka, “Putting the 400 lbs hackers on diets.”\n\n\nTurns out there is some marginally clear policy, just not McKinsey title mode versus white papers.\nJonathan Shieber@Tech Crunch: \"The biggest question facing millions of Americans this Wednesday is: just how much of what Donald Trump said on the campaign does he intend to actually try to make happen.\" (For example, Korea.)\nDave Lee, at the BBC has a good laundry list: “Uncertainty, frustration and an increased fragility for the global home of tech innovation. Mr Trump certainly won't want to go down as the president who destroyed Silicon Valley, but the concern here is that of the few policies that have been explained in detail, some seem directly at odds with each other.”\n10% repatriation program - tech companies have tons of cash abroad:\nHistoric rates: “At the highest tax rate, corporations must pay 35% to repatriate capital, minus local taxes charged by countries in which the funds are held.”\n\n\nHardware: “AAPL (93% of $230bln), CSCO (91% of $64.6B), IBM ($8.2B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but note 58% of earnings are from non US operations), HPE ($10.0B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but 65% of earnings are from non US operations), HPQ ($5.6B total cash, undisclosed % of cash held overseas but 65%-70% of earnings are from non US operations), JNPR (94% of $3.2B).”\nSoftware: “Specifically, some of the mid and large cap companies that have large cash balances “trapped” offshore are likely to benefit from being able to return a portion of this cash to shareholders. We note companies with high gross cash balances trapped offshore include: ADBE (85% of $4B – from 2015 10-K), ADSK (86% of $2.1B), CA (76% of $2.7B), CTXS (80% of $2.45B), FTNT (38% of $1.2B), ORCL (76% of $56B – pre-N), MSFT (96% of $113B – pre-LNKD purchase), RHT (42% of $2.0B), SYMC (93% of $5.6B – post-BC), VMW (77% of $7.5B), VRSN (68% of $1.9B). We believe the chances increase of a larger share repurchase or (lesser chance) dividend from these companies.”\n\nApple & Amazon are not in a good situation - they’ll be a good test of WTF happens. Meanwhile, tech stocks dropping a bit.\nOvum has a shit ton of quick analysis, all free:\n\n\nFear of US public cloud companies, globally. Remember the freak-out from NSA stuff? Same idea. I think the Gemans got over it.\nOutsources:\n“A massive curtailing of H-1B visas, for example, will mean providers will need to make immediate shifts in what they’re able to offer customers locally, unless or until they’re able to compensate with talent.”\n“For providers, there’s also the unanswered question of the impact on US government spending.”\n[Education](https://www.ovum.com/trumping-expectations-now-us-public-sector-2/ - some proposals for de-centralizing, meaning fragmentation of IT spend.\nGovernment talent, regulations, and spending - “If there is a large exodus of high-caliber and skilled staff, how will departments fill the gap? It also raises the question of funding for programs aimed at modernizing tech in the federal government such as F18 and FedRAMP. Trump might reduce the barriers to swapping out tech and push down expenditure that way. Certainly, the high cost and length of time needed to get Authority to Operate (ATO) under FedRAMP has been a barrier to uptake.”\nTelcos - other than him stating he’d stop the AT&T/TimeWarner merger, telco stuff is very unclear. No one’s sure what the traditional Republican +/- Trump equals, or what the formula is.\n\nM&A from Brenon@451: “Chinese buyers probably won't be shopping as freely in the US in the coming years.” They spent $14bn this year, I think.\nChinese buyers have recently picked up Ingram Micro, which swings nearly $50bn worth of tech gear and services each year, 25-year-old printer maker Lexmark and even a majority stake in the gay dating app Grindr.\" Also see shorter blog post with chart of Chinese M&A spend.\nSnowden for Head of NSA!.\n\n\nFollow-up\n\n\nThat’s how you do it!\nWe got actual comments!\n\n\nBONUS LINKS!

Docker Inc. then went on to essentially accuse Red Hat of forking Docker - at the Red Hat Summit no less. After that, Docker Inc’s Solomon Hykes came out strongly against the efforts to standardize the container runtime in OCI - an initiative his company co-founded.”\nRe: that episode where we discuss Docker ecosystem challenges: “Yet on a regular basis, Red Hat patches that enable valid requirements from Red Hat customer use cases get shut down as it seems for the simple reason that they don’t fit into Docker Inc’s business strategy.”\nA fight over where to draw the line between free/open/commodified and costs/proprietary/competitive: \"And while I personally consider the orchestration layer the key to the container paradigm, the right approach here is to keep the orchestration separate from the core container runtime standardization. This avoids conflicts between different layers of the container runtime: we can agree on the common container package format, transport, and execution model without limiting choice between e.g. Kubernetes, Mesos, Swarm.\"\nDon't bring a pistol to a bazooka fight.

Integrations with LinkedIn offer potential functionality that will be challenging to duplicate. When the two companies are joined, there will be multiple ways that LinkedIn's member network, and the data from that, will go into improving Microsoft's Office and Dynamics apps, besides the other benefits from running a combined company.\"\n\"LinkedIn's tools for recruiters account for 58% of the $860m in revenue it generated in the first quarter of the year [so, $3.440bn run rate]. When combined with educational material from its Lynda.com acquisition, HCM tools make up 65% of sales. Tools for marketers and premium subscriptions (including its offering for sales teams) each make up less than 20% of the business, and are the slowest growing parts of the business.\"\n\"Microsoft is the world's largest software developer, with about $100bn in sales and a $400bn market cap.\"\nI-Bankers rejoice!\nTim Anderson inadvertantly makes a good case of CRM/HCM\n\n\nPrivate Equity buying Tech Companies\n\n\nWhy private equity is buying up software companies\nThe theory seems to be: SaaS companies are undervalued, and PE firms are looking to buy cheap assets and grow them, and re-exit them.
