Despite what some people say, Docker containers have plenty of resiliency options when needed. [Really?]
As Docker picks up steam, a few people are suggesting that this approach to cloud workload portability and management may have an Achilles' heel.
Docker containers sit on a shared Linux implementation, which creates the potential for significantly more vulnerabilities that can affect the operation of every container on a server, especially if the underlying OS goes down. In such an event, all containerized workloads could go down as well.
