Infinit Joins Docker

Hi, member of the Infinit team here.<p>We&#x27;re very excited to be joining Docker! Their technology is great and the momentum behind them is really impressive. Feel free to ask questions, I&#x27;ll be around a little this evening (based in Paris).<p>Their post: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.docker.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;12&#x2F;docker-acquires-infinit&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.docker.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;12&#x2F;docker-acquires-infinit&#x2F;</a>

The Achilles heel of Docker is not caching all artifacts.<p>There needs to be a --cache-only option where it pulls packages to the host then copies them into the container. Right now you have to do a two container build where the first pulls packages, you copy them out for archival&#x2F;caching, then copy them into a second container for the build.<p>I guess another solution would be to have the base container pull the packages but not install anything. The child container would actually do the build then clean up.

Congratulations Infinit. Definitely a surprise until I read the background on your container work.

Congratulation guys! Good luck Akim :)

This looks like a very exciting project, maybe if this is refined it could be used for prosumer&#x2F;homeusers to scale their NAS storage?

<i>&quot;With stateful applications being the next natural step in this evolution...&quot;</i><p>So ephemeral applications are not hip?

Congrats Julien &amp; Baptiste and the cat from the Camping! Dan

How does the performance of this compare to efs?

&quot;... quite an incredible journey.&quot;<p>Reads almost as satire, given <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com&#x2F;</a>
