At DockerCon, Chris Dawson presented the research we did about the popular open source project, Docker. In this first part of our two-hour podcast, Chris presented what he discovered from the data, what it reflects and how the lightweight container technology is being used by the community.
Hosts: We were joined by Michael Cote, an analyst at 451 Research, Donnie Berkholz of RedMonk and Chris, a regular contributor to The New Stack.
Guests: Paul Showalter of New Relic and James Turnbull of Docker, the author of The Docker Book.
#5: Docker Contributor Analysis
Listen to all TNS podcasts on Simplecast.
Chris had a few questions he wanted answered:
- Who is using Docker?
- What is the correlation to other projects contributors are working on in other public communities.
- What organizations are using Docker?
- What languages are developers using with their Docker projects?
- What are the popular bases images Docker users are making?
The research drew on the data Chris pulled from GitHub and other sources.
Our analysis will follow in a later post. But this show does get into the results and includes commentary by our hosts and guests.
