"The time for Dockers and containers isn't quite today, but it's very close."

Hmmm ... tell that to AirBnb (http://nerds.airbnb.com/future-app-deployment/), New Relic (https://blog.newrelic.com/2014/08/12/docker-centurion/ ) and Spotify (https://blog.docker.com/2014/06/dockercon-video-docket-at-sp...)

It is a young technology, but moving quickly. Just 10 years ago, YouTube wasn't owned by Google yet and we didn't have the first iPhone.

Hell, 17 years ago VMware (arguably the king in the virtual machine software market) was founded. If it was a kid, it wouldn't have graduated from high school yet!

I don't understand how "Companies are using containers." suddenly translates to containers being ready for prime time.
