I'm not the least bit respectable, but I do have an opinion. That work?
The fat container market for the corporation is ruled by VMWare. OpenStack, RHEV, etc, are distant thirds, not even enough to make second. The ultra-thin container, like Docker, is a great idea in some ways. It will take brains to make it work enough to get money flowing, though.
The real question is, are you wanting to lead or follow? You can get a stable job at $BigCorp with basic skills and make good money. Or you can entrepreneur yourself and push into technologies you want to have fun with. May or may not pay, but you have to decide how your rewards are defined.
There are shifts fixing to happen. Some are new but most are probably a recycle back to the good old days, with a lemon twist. That's what makes this stuff fun.

I've heard from multiple people, who I respect greatly, that OpenStack is going to die off, but I just don't see it. The modern IT infrastructure is heavily populated with products and technologies that were a really bad idea in their original release. So, while I think OpenStack has some serious problems, I think it is going to be around for quite a while. I would like to hear what a number of other folks who I respect think. -- Matt
