The modern production stack

Over a year ago I wrote the first of what was supposed to be the start of a series of articles on how research our industry had been doing years (decades) ago was relevant today and even in use today, i.e., had moved from blue-sky research into reality. I never got round to updating it, despite several valiant attempts. However, thanks to James I got to see a nice article called Anatomy of a Modern Production Stack, I probably don't need to, or at least not as much as I'd expected. And before anyone points out, yes this stuff is very similar to what James, Rob and the team have been doing with Fabric8, OpenShift etc.
