Tyson Kunovsky, an expert in AutoCloud and Infrastructure as Code, joins the podcast to discuss the benefits of automating resource provisioning through platforms like AutoCloud. They explore reducing human errors in cloud-based infrastructures, enabling self-service infrastructure for faster deployment, reducing the learning curve with AutoCloud, and the evolution and future of automation in the cloud.

The podcast discusses the Blameless framework for incident management. It explores dimensions of incident management, communication challenges in a microservices-focused outage incident, communication challenges in a microservice-driven organization, improving incident response and communication channels, and the involvement of higher-level managers in incident management.

Cloud applications continue to grow in popularity, but ensuring the security of these applications often presents a formidable engineering challenge. This challenge motivated the creation of Jit. Jit is a continuous security platform for developers, and seeks to enable every cloud app to start with minimum viable security, or MVS, without slowing development velocity. David Melamed is the Co-founder and CTO of Jit and he joins us in the episode to talk about his platform. Jeff is a DevSecOps engineer with  experience in security, the software development life cycle, and cloud technologies. His advanced expertise in HashiCorp technologies places him as one of the most sought after trainers in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa regions and beyond. Jeff has worked for a range of different companies – from small startups to some of the biggest financial institutions. He now successfully runs his own consultancy that provides services in DevSecOps, Cloud and Security. You can find Jeff at hemmen.lu.

Elasticsearch is the most established solution today to search and analyze large amounts of logs. However, it can be costly and complex to manage. Quickwit searches large amounts of append only cloud data like logs or ledgers in a fraction time with significantly less cost than Elasticsearch. In this episode, we interview Paul Masurel, one of the founders of Quickwit and the creator and maintainer of Tantivy, the open source full text search engine written in Rust. Starting her career as a software developer, Jocelyn Houle is now a Senior Director of Product Management at Securiti.ai, a unified data protection and governance platform. Before that, she was an Operating Partner at Capital One Ventures investing in data and AI startups. Jocelyn has been a founder of two startups and a full life cycle, technical product manager at large companies like Fannie Mae, Microsoft and Capital One.  Follow Jocelyn on LinkedIn  or Twitter @jocelynbyrne.

Hyperscalers refer to expansive cloud service providers capable of delivering enterprise-scale computing and storage services. These Hyperscalers like Google, Amazon, Facebook that have huge data centers and are either running their own software or renting out this infrastructure realized a long time back that the traditional Network, Storage & Compute server racks were not enough to fulfill the requirements of a modern enterprise at scale. So they built custom solutions for their data center requirements. For all of the other companies and organizations that have their own data centers, they are still running legacy old technology. Oxide Computer is a company aiming to democratize access to rack-scale technology and provide a seamless software stack to facilitate its implementation. Bryan Cantrill is the Co-Founder and CTO of Oxide Computer and he joins us in this episode. Jordi Mon Companys is a product manager and marketer that specializes in software delivery, developer experience, cloud native and open source.

CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) is a new technology that can improve startup and warmup times by orders of magnitude. It is a project of OpenJDK that was proposed and led by Azul. The CRaC Project defines public Java APIs that allow for the coordination of resources during checkpoint and restore operations. With CRaC, a checkpoint can be set at any point where an application can be safely paused. Azul is releasing a reference implementation of CRaC in JDK 17 with the Azul Zulu Build of OpenJDK for x86 64-bit Linux update. CRaC allows for an “instant” start at any point in the application lifecycle at an optimal speed. ​It also work’s really well with Azul’s ReadyNow! feature that optimizes warm-up. For the first time, developers will have a TCK-tested, CRaC-configured, production-ready JVM with commercial support available for their use. Gerrit Grunwald is a Java Champion & Principle Engineer at Azul and he joins us in this episode. Full disclosure: Azul is a sponsor of Software Engineering Daily. Alex is an AWS Data Hero, an independent consultant, and the author of The DynamoDB Book, the comprehensive guide to data modeling with DynamoDB. He was an early employee at Serverless, Inc., creators of the Serverless Framework, and was an early community member in the serverless space. His consulting and training work focuses on serverless architectures and database optimization. You can find him on Twitter as @alexbdebrie or on his site, alexdebrie.com.
