Docker, the open source platform for developers to build, ship, and run distributed applications, joined Mixpanel for our February Office Hours in San Francisco. If you weren’t there, you didn’t miss the boat entirely. We’re hosting it again in an exclusive virtual event.
Ben Bonnefoy, the technical team member at Docker, shares how the world’s leading software containerization platform navigates product analytics and communicates the benefits of tracking to users and team members.
But according to Ben there’s a Catch-22
In an open source community, sometimes the idea of tracking user behavior can come with its sensitivities, both within the company and for its users. In having a single source of truth, Docker better understands its platform’s usage and how to make it even better for its thriving community. As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats.
If you’re one of the millions of Docker users, you don’t want to miss out on learning how tracking improves products and builds trust within an open source community.
