I don't understand this. Isn't using a hypervisor the same as using a VM? How is this different from using VMware, Xen, etc. to run a stripped down VM with a tiny kernel inside to handle Docker?
1) Are there any competitors? 2) Can we be confident in building our business on this platform? What is the funding and stability situation of Hyper?
1) AFAIK, this is the first secure container cloud. 2) You can play with it, but better wait till out of beta 3) We are funded :)
Assigning userId client-side even before you hit the actual user database enables data to be sync'd anonymously across services with userId rather than email address. If you block this from running, yes, you block it from working.

I understand boot up completes in under a second but if one needs to setup an environment to do something useful, it can take several seconds. I guess what I'm getting at is why would the fast boot matter when one still needs to setup a basic environment to complete a task?
This is analogous to achieving an artificially low TTFB but actual rendering doesn't start until several seconds later.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
