> Mesos (and thus Mesosphere)

Mesos is an open source project. Would you consider any other vendors besides Mesosphere?

Mesos and Marathon are open source, but there are features that the enterprise offering has (in addition to support) that the open source one does not.

Vendor wouldn't matter if someone needed those "enterprise" features.

DC/OS is also open source. What are your concerns with it?

Mesos is an Apache project. (DC/OS is not.) Apache projects are required to be vendor-neutral. That's part of the covenant under which contributors participate.

The Apache governance model provides opportunities for competing vendors, so besides Mesosphere, the market is open for other players to provide Mesos support.

Components aren't open source. Still waiting for the new hdfs package to be released see https://github.com/mesosphere/hdfs-deprecated/blob/master/RE...

The new package is here: http://universe.dcos.io/#/package/beta-hdfs/version/latest

Yes the package is available but as far as I can see not open source yet.

Here it is: https://github.com/mesosphere/dcos-commons/tree/master/frame...

Excellent. Thanks!
