We are using Mesosphere Enterprise DCOS at Valassis Digital, they are a great group of people to work with.
We believe this type of infrastructure to be the future and are already reaping benefits after just having launched it into our production infrastructure a few months ago.
Could we have launched it without their help and packaging, probably, but there are simply not enough experienced individuals out there to ramp up quickly. I see this analogous to running Hadoop in its early days and having Cloudera support as a safety net.
I am sure closed source schedulers and other for pay tools to round out the ecosystem will provide a sufficient business model for them to be successful.
Shameless plug: If you are interested in working in this type of environment, ping me (email in profile). Looking for Devops, Node and frontend (react, etc.) engineers. Seattle, WA; Livonia, MI; San Francisco, CA
