Docker certainly has issues that are pretty severe when you are in the financial space and not a big deal if you are running a popular blog like medium.com for example.

12 nodes running 12 containers (1 per node) each bringing in 12$ a second and you're a multi billion dollars company.

Let's multiply that a few times for dev, test and support systems. Still, no need to have hundreds of nodes.
