In this very special episode of Cloud Commute we try something else. Joined by guest Bart Farrell, well known in the Kubernetes ecosystem for his work in the Data on Kubernetes community, as well as Kube.FM. Bart talks about his past, teaching children English after he moved from the USA to Spain, and how this shaped his view on teaching tech topics, his podcast, and more.

In this episode of Cloud Commute, Chris and Bart discuss:

Navigating the cloud-native ecosystem and Kubernetes
Building and contributing to tech communities (Postgres, Kubernetes)
Teaching, learning, and public speaking skills applied to tech
The future of Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies in the context of AI

About simplyblock:

Simplyblock is an intelligent database storage orchestrator for IO-intensive workloads in Kubernetes, including databases and analytics solutions. It uses smart NVMe caching to speed up read I/O latency and queries. A single system connects local NVMe disks, GP3 volumes, and S3 making it easier to handle storage capacity and performance. With the benefits of thin provisioning, storage tiering, and volume pooling, your database workloads get better performance at lower cost without changes to existing AWS infrastructure.
