I work for dotCloud (the company which started Docker), and I was at YaC (Yandex tech conference; the equivalent of Google I/O in Eastern Europe, if you will), and had the opportunity to discuss this with the Yandex team. Here are some extra info (that can easily be found on the web, so nothing sensitive here) - They released the Docker plugin shortly before the conference [1] - Yandex uses a distributed storage system called Elliptics [2] in many places, and they implemented an Elliptics backend for the Docker registry (the code is out there somewhere. They contributed the Elliptics backend to the Docker registry repo a couple of days ago [3]. - Cocaine is used to power various things inside Yandex, like the Yandex.Browser backend. This backend can sustain very high loads (10-100k req/s). I discussed with their Ops team, since they had s

pecific questions about how to identify (and remove) potential performance bottlenecks in Docker networking stack. (Good news: you can achieve native network performance within containers with zero overhead!) I'm considering writing Dockerfiles for Elliptics and Cocaine (as soon as I can find some spare time to do so...) but I would also be happy to help if other people want to do that (I'm actively monitoring the docker-user mailing list [4] so don't hesitate to get in touch through here).

In Search Engine Yandex Launches "Cocaine" To Compete With Google App Engine
memracom·Oct 4, 2013
What I like about Docker is that if I have a production server build based on Centos 6.4 and use Docker to install tools x, y and z, then I can easily and quickly build a VM on my desktop with Virtualbox, install the base Centos 6.4, and run the Docker builds for tools x, y, and z. At that point I have a dev environment that is as close as you can reasonably get to the production server. This means that there will be fewer integration issues in QA and fewer release issues down the road. That is what Docker buys you. Anyone who has worked with Solaris containers will argue that there is fundamentally no difference, and they would be right. In addition, you could skip Docker and just use build scripts written in bash and get the same results, and that is also true. Docker is a small incremental improvement over these earlier solutions, but

what matters is not size, but that it does improve the situation. The Dockerfile is cleaner and clearer than a bash script. The registry is already built for you https://github.com/dotcloud/docker-registry and the learning curve for new people is much reduced http://docs.docker.io/en/latest/ These are worthwhile improvements.
