Am I the only one which thinks the docker vs vm slide is just wrong as there is nothing running on the docker daemon at all and even super simple docker pics on docker Inc. always talk about the docker engine as abstraction between os and container. This also lacks a bit but is a way better analogy for all the Linux namespacing cgroups etc. Which habens in reality on the kernel. The daemon doesn't run anything at all but maintaines state.

IMHO this are the kind of simplifications which just make people more confused about a complex topic like that on the long run And in addition the last points are also applying fully to micro vms but are shown as great benefit of docker. I can't like it unfortunately
