With all of this talk about docker, Kubernetes and the rest I feel peer pressured into ditching my monolithic heroku rails app and switching to the distributed services heaven that docker seems too advertise.

Can anybody that has made the switch give me a convincing argument about why I should switch to (or not)? My feeling that docker is great if you are VP of Engineering at Netflix, but is probably not the best thing if you are starting a startup and just need to get things done.

Disclaimer: I'm not religious about this and I'm totally open to being convinced that I'm wrong.

I very much like reading this type of stories where founders candidly talk about their business, how well they are doing, what did it take to get where they are (remove a good chunk of the usual BS, add some numbers). Indie Hackers is a great source (https://www.indiehackers.com) for this type of stories.

I have a feeling that this is the dream of a lot of people on HN. Having an easy to run business with a couple of people, without crazy competition, not needing to go sell it to VCs, and making a good amount of money while running it. Not judging, just observing.
