<p><i>> There is no incentive to improve the software under those circumstances</i><p>Classy. This comment is 100% exactly the attitude. This is why Step 1 is to find a new job. This poster is punishing you like a parent would a child. Is this the way you want to be looked at and treated? Did you study as hard as you did and spent so much time developing your craft for this?<p>There are better opportunities out there. 1,000s of them. Avoid the jrockways of the world and you will have a much happier career and life.</p>

<p>Anything in the world can be part of a job description. That speaks nothing about if it is reasonable or ethical.<p>Many, many, many industries have overnight staff to handle these issues, but likely because software engineers tend to be young, lack a union and are paid salary with no overtime compensation, it is somehow acceptable in this industry. Which is why I honestly asked that question. Why do you and the above poster, find it so normal to be on pager duty when so many other industries, often with much more critical services, do not require it?</p>

<p>Please, I beg you not to let go of your compassion for human life. These people obviously had troubled lives and went through great amounts of pain. There is a time and a place for debates about gender equality, but I don't feel like it is helping anyone to do it here. With that said I understand your frustration and sincerely wish you well.</p>

<p>Why would documentation about docker include basic fundamental knowledge about deploying services in production? This isn't docker knowledge, this is service based architecture 101. Why is it docker's responsibility to teach you general software engineering concepts?</p>

<p>I would strongly recommend first making sure you are comfortable with the concepts and architecture of decoupled systems and services. The biggest pain I see in practice are groups that come from monolithic software development backgrounds.<p>This article is a great example where in using docker for the first time they chose to attempt to run the state layer(database) in a container. State layers tend to be always available and difficult to scale horizontally anyway. This cancels out a decent chunk of the benefits of containers in production. If that team had more experience with service based architecture they would have known to use an third party database service provider(RDS) or host their own on a persistent server. Especially on their first experience with containers.</p>

<p>I hate to say it but this article sounds like it was written by your typical one trick pony, technology averse client services agency.<p>They are the last to adopt new things as they tend to be the lowest on the talent chain as meeting estimates, often via client coercion or moving goalposts, is much more important than successful solutions over the mid-ling term.<p>For anyone reading this that is part of that group, leave stuff like containers to outside organizations with stronger engineering talent and focus on what ultimate makes you money which is client networking and sales.</p>

<p>It's not just tech companies. The whole shielding responsibility via contractors is basically the name of the game for any large corporation. One quick example is chicken farming.<p>This article was about a lawsuit about chicken waste in 2010<p><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/02/AR2010030202408.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03...</a><p>The relevant quote from the article is a statement from Perdue Chicken <i>"Perdue owns no factory farms," the company said. "Families that raise poultry for Perdue are independent farmers."</i></p>
