Mesosphere stole the enterprise spotlight last week with the reveal of a commercial offering that strings together various components from the open-source ecosystem into a distributed data center operating system.
Good. OpenStack deserves more competition, especially from projects that actually deliver.
Also, I suspect Mesos can run VMs if that's what customers want. Building a full EC2-style IaaS on Mesos would be a lot of work, but I suspect customers who adopt Mesos are more likely to be "cloud native" and thus less interested in IaaS-style machine-like abstractions.
