Kubernetes Podcast from Google

In this podcast, Istio core maintainers John Howard and Keith Mattix discuss the latest updates on Istio, including the introduction of native sidecar containers and the new ambient service mesh architecture. They also talk about implementing Z Tunnel in Rust, enabling mesh transport with H-bone, and the impact of Istio's graduation within the CNCF.

Learn about the history of containers, Docker, and Kubernetes from expert Phil Estes. They discuss the intertwined relationship between Docker, containerd, and Kubernetes, the importance of open source, and the security differences between containers and micro VMs.

Grace Nguyen, the Kubernetes 1.28 release lead, discusses the challenges and work behind the release, including API awareness of side-car containers and improvements in storage and pod termination policies. The podcast also explores job retry and admission web hooks in Kubernetes 1.28, lack of deprecations in the release, and the move to community-owned package repositories for sidecars in Kubernetes.

Wesley Hales and Max Bruce, co-founders of LeakSignal, discuss layer seven cybersecurity solutions and their use of WebAssembly technology. They delve into the implementation and potential of Proxy WASM, the components of LeakSignal, and the limitations of eBPF for complex scanning.

“The State of Kubernetes Cost Optimization,” is a recent report based on research into best practices for running Kubernetes clusters. If you’re running your workloads as efficiently as possible, your costs will be optimal too. The report reviews the data and offers recommendations on tools and techniques you can use to optimize your Kubernetes clusters. We talk with two of the report’s creators, Fernando Rubbo and Kent Hua, to learn more.   Do you have something cool to share? Some questions?
