This chapter explores various approaches to running server jobs, emphasizing the use of Docker containers on virtual machines as a flexible alternative to Kubernetes. It highlights the benefits of serverless computing options and the potential for using existing resources while avoiding vendor lock-in. The discussion also touches on the importance of customer needs, particularly for high-security sectors, in shaping software deployment models.
Large datasets require large computational resources to process that data. More frequently, where you process that data geographically can be just as important as how you process it.
Expanso provides job execution infrastructure that runs jobs where data resides, to help reduce latency and improve security and data governance.
David Aronchick is the CEO of Expanso. He previously worked at Google on the Kubernetes team, which influenced his decision to start Expanso. David joins the show to talk about his company.
