Why are so many high-performing engineering teams still running stand-alone Docker in 2025? (Hint: it’s not because they forgot about K8s.) At Causely, we’ve seen a clear pattern: when performance matters, or customer needs get complex, teams lean on stand-alone Docker for fast, flexible deployment - at the edge, in CI pipelines, for tenant-specific modules, or around Kafka queues. But these patterns often come at a cost: performance blind spots and fragmented troubleshooting. In this blog post, I break down four real architecture patterns where Docker shines, and how we help teams maintain reliability across these hybrid environments with eBPF instrumentation and causal reasoning. Read the full breakdown: https://lnkd.in/eK4AYVby I'd love to hear from other teams: Are you seeing more stand-alone containers creeping back in around the edges of your platform? #cloudnative #docker #platformengineering #observability #sre #microservices #causality #DevOps #rootcauseanalysis #causely
