Cloud Native Applications

"Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else—if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing.”
"A slow sort of country!" said the Red Queen. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!" 
The Red Queen's race incident, Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass 

We are living in Red Queen’s country, now more than ever . . . 

Applications
Applications is all that matters because that is where value is created. 
The focus should be on Applications rather than in containers or orchestrators

Microservices are an architectural and organizational approach to applications development where an application is composed of small independent services that communicate over well-defined APIs. These services are owned by small, self-contained teams.

Microservices architectures make applications easier to scale and faster to develop, enabling innovation and accelerating time-to-market for new features.
