A top VMware exec says it's becoming the 'largest force' in the Google-made Kubernetes, as it places a 'huge bet' on a tech that many thought would kill it (VMW, PVTL) A few years back, a startup called Docker popularized so-called containers, a different way of thinking about running software in the cloud.
