You might think that the cloud is the best place to work through large data sets, but you may want to run the numbers first. Computation on the big data scale, that of terabytes and petabytes, requires a huge number of processor cores to work efficiently. Since cloud costs are computed based on the number of clock cycles it becomes incredibly cost prohibitive to run big data calculations on the cloud. Sure, if you are planning to run a one-off data set maybe it's cheaper to go with the cloud rather than purchase hardware, but in most other situations it just doesn't make economic sense. Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Compliance Officers in the financial sector have a tough job.

It would also allow companies to become more efficient and make the most of their software assets. The nicest way for an ops team to use Docker would be if Docker did the hard work of integrating Docker with AWS and Azure, he said, so that's what Docker has done. As a result, if someone wants to deploy a new Swarm on AWS, for instance, there's a cloud template, and the ops team member simple selects the desired number of nodes, clicks, and they are done.
