ZeroDB (Changelog Interviews #190)

MacLane Wilkison and Michael Egorov, the creators of ZeroDB, joined the show to talk about ZeroDB — an end-to-end encrypted database (protocol), why it’s open source, how it’s different than other encryption techniques, performance for running encrypted queries, and an interesting topic called Proxy re-encryption.
