Versatile software engineer with a background in .NET consulting and CMS development. Working on regaining my embedded development skills to get more involved with IoT opportunities.
Be careful with containers. They don't automatically imply low-maintenance; anxiety is the first thing that comes to my mind. You either need to have a pretty good idea of what you are doing piecing together the absolute minimum set of layers for a functioning app and setting up security and persistence properly. Or you can trust someone else to do it and hope they don't break things pushing brand new dependencies without testing or failing to secure root with a password.
I like my VPS and VM environments and my scripts. Currently working on transitioning my deployment process to Puppet 100%.

You are not the first person to mention this... It seems I definitely misjudged containers.
Vital info! More reasons to go the EBS route. Thank you :)!
