Deep dives
WebAssembly is an up and coming technology
WebAssembly is an up and coming technology that operational personnel should familiarize themselves with. It provides a bytecode-like format and an execution specification that can be compared to the Java Virtual Machine or the .NET CLR. Web Assembly offers a default disposition of not trusting code, which makes it suitable for running untrusted code in web browsers securely. However, its potential extends beyond the browser and can be applied in areas such as IoT, plug-in architectures, and cloud environments.
