Like all new tech there is a hype cycle where people attempt to use it for
everything. Dockers are new in that regard. But the concept is old jails,
openvz, vmware. Microservices are actually the new automation hotness.

My company has a microservice task force...where we attempt to figure out
what exactly microservices are? Webapps, lamba, node js apps?

In any case on the surface docker is mostly a cross platform software
packaging system..
