HOW FLUENTD GOT HERE
PACKAGE FOR CLOUD
“That competition is the cloud.
Competition is an interesting term to use, to be sure, because the cloud is built for the
most part from open source software, and the cloud is such an important channel that
it has elevated open source projects such as Ubuntu to first class citizen status.”

Each of them is an entry point into a new ecosystem.
Package for ‘em to leverage ‘em.
