Docker\u2019s new enterprise SKUs and, once again, the open-core model. Also: IPO mania with Snap and MuleSoft. In discussion Docker EE, we start with a discussion on how socket-based pricing may seem goofy, but all pricing schemes are pretty weird, so you gotta choose one. We then try to dissect what exactly you get with the enterprise edition and conclude that we should have done more prep work.

  \n
\n
• Cot\xe9: check out Pivotal\u2019s DIY platform paper. tl;dr: for $7m/year with a two year on-ramp, you could build you own, or just buy Pivotal Cloud Foundry. Many of our customers have gone down this path and ended up not wanting to support the life of their own platform...which doesn\u2019t match the pace of innovation that the Cloud Foundry community can follow.

\n\nDocker Goes Enterprise\n\n

\n\nOpenNMS on FLOSS Weekly\n\n

\n
• Open source monitoring for years and years
\n

\n\nHashiCorp News\n\n

\n
• Making Money With Freemium
\n
• \u201cThe question of how to make money from Open Source is a vexed one, with Red Hat frequently held up as the poster child of commercial open source success, yet it remains a lonely occupant of the category "Open Source Companies That Are Profitable\u201d
\n
• Good Narrative fallacy going here: "The open source products are really focused on the practitioner," McJannet said. "The enterprise products are focused on the needs of the organisation."
\n
• August, 2016: \u201cHashimoto said HashiCorp has just finished its first 7-figure revenue quarter\u201d Up from \u201ctriple-digit\u201d/month in July 2015. So, whatdwegot: $2-3m run-rate?

\n
• Exstensive coverage from The Economist.

\n
• Where\u2019s Steve Gillmor when you need him? See also closing plea in The Attention Merchants (book review from Cot\xe9 forth coming once he finishes Chaos Monkeys): \u201cIf we desire a future that avoids the enslavement of the propaganda state as well as the narcosis of the consumer and celebrity culture, we must first acknowledge the preciousness of our attention and resolve not to part with it as cheaply or unthinkingly as we so often have.\u201d SO ADORABLE!
\n
• The SnapChat demo is good but the The Snap Company Council looks weird.
\n
• Facebook found a product but it was ugly
\n
• Ben Thompson picking on Twitter\n\n
  \n
  • Hindsight fallacy
  \n
