Hi Shaheed, All 3 mention thread has discussed lot of ideas. As far as my understand all [1][2][3] will address eventually. As a first step we need to written in python is very important, what i can see, when we moving to docker, containers can boot up within 1,2 second and light weight agent is must. Also python more devops friendly interpreter language, its easy to extent when and there. IMO, we have to start in somewhere and keep improving it, to our needs
