Once you get to that point, absolutely, I can see the value. But, counterpoint - I've seen Docker being a gateway to that sort of mess, too. It tears down a lot of the barriers that might have otherwise made it inconvenient to add more technologies to the stack, and some developers just can't help themselves in that department. One fairly new commercial offering I evaluated, which is distributed as a Docker-compose stack, was using 4 different databases. That's just crazy - now their dev team needs to understand the behavior and idiosyncrasies of 4 different data storage technologies, and their clients will end up needing to deal with blowback from all that excess complexity, too. |
