Do you work for Apcera?

Your submission page is heavy on the linux-toys.com domain, implying that it's yours. That same site identifies the author as working at Apcera.

There is also a submission in your account that points directly to an Apcera blogpost, with the same author name.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal, we donate the majority of engineering to Cloud Foundry. Apcera has beef with us.

Yes, I work for Apcera and linux-toys.com is my personal blog where I talk about open source technologies (mainly Docker lately) and software that I develop. Like the article states, I am a Docker fanboy and want them to be great again. The blog website is actually running on a four node Raspberry pi cluster that I referenced in the blog as a link. The reason I joined Apcera is because they are also developing cool container technology. Until recently, Apcera was only available to enterprises and didn’t have a solution for “homeduction” users like me to host and run applications like my blog and a few other services. With the community edition of the software, I can gather a few spare x86 boxes and make the switch. I will still be running the same Docker images but using Apcera’s orchestration software instead of swarm.

Thanks. I'm glad to hear Apcera is branching out and that you're excited to work there.
