This year, we conducted a new survey where both end users and vendors were asked about container orchestration. The results do nothing to say that Docker has lost its centrality, but rather that Kubernetes has arrived.
Production users of containers overwhelmingly think of Docker as a packaging format. Docker the company thinks it is much more. The chart is from a JFrog survey and was completed by many Artifactory users, which means they understand the roles package and repository managers play. Along with […]
IT pros are of mixed minds about CLIs. They know CLIs inhibit network automation, but they appreciate the agility they can provide. Based on an ESG survey of IT pros, the main benefit of network automation, cited by 20 percent of respondents, is that configurations become […]
What is CaaS and how is it related to PaaS? TNS contributor Janakiram MSV continues to write about it in Forbes, but the chart comes from our ebook and frames the debate. Many of our readers have seen the results and question the inclusion of build/deploy […]
By 2020, half of all IT spending at large enterprises with digital business aspirations will occur at the business-unit level.
Computer Economics indicates that application programmers make up the same percentage of the IT workforce as they did six years ago. In another chart, they also indicate that outsourcing of app dev has not risen. Thus, although software is becoming more important, it is likely companies […]
When asked what three products respondents plan to use for container orchestration, Ansible received the second most citations, well ahead of its configuration management rivals. Orchestration-specific tools — like Kubernetes, AWS ECS, and products based on Docker Swarm or Mesos — will still be the primary orchestration tools. […]
Recent analysis by StackShare indicates that Silicon Valley developers use AWS, GitHub and Slack more often than others.
Support by Google is the least valuable feature in AngularJS according to a survey coming out of Brazil’s Federal University of Minas Gerais. As we wrote about last month, Google is prepping the release of AngularJS 2.0. While it may be a bit disappointing to hear that they don’t matter, […]
Scheduling, cluster management, and service discovery are widely acknowledged to be part of container orchestration. However, over half of the respondents also consider provisioning and monitoring to be part of orchestration. Configuration management was the functionality least likely to be associated with container orchestration, although […]
According to a JFrog survey, developers are complaining less about non-development tasks. Those saying “waiting during build test time” is “very time-consuming” dropped from 28 percent in 2013 to 14 percent in 2015. No wonder more and more people are adopting continuous deployment and integration practices. Above is a chart […]
When covering the container ecosystem, vendors repeatedly tell us that their target audience is DevOps. Although we have long thought of DevOps as more of a process, there is more and more data that says otherwise. The recent Stack Overflow survey saw the percentage of developers identifying […]
