#251: We're becoming more and more dependent on sophisticated systems that transport data from one part of our application to another. This infrastructure, often referred to as message brokers, is a vital backbone supporting many products we use daily. But are we fully leveraging their power and simplicity? In this episode, we speak with Valera Bronshtein, Director of Infrastructure at Memphis.dev, about event-based architectures and why using effective message brokers doesn't have to be hard or complicated.   Valera's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ValeraBronsht LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/valerabr/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#250: Sure, we can use Generative AI to write code for us and generate cool pictures...sometimes. But who has the responsibility for making sure all that infrastructure stays up and running? Look no further than your favorite sysadmin or cloud engineer. There is nothing new under the sun... In this 250th episode, we have our friend Patrick Debois back on to talk about how he's researching we can use Generative AI beyond just the typical use cases that we see today and why understanding how to integrate all these new tools together may be more important than learning how to be a prompt engineer (whatever that means).   Patrick's contact information: X (Formerly Twitter): https://twitter.com/patrickdebois LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrickdebois/   YouTube channel:  https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#249: One of the prominent discussions in the software industry is the concept of 'build versus buy.' Often the argument focuses on creating a whole system from scratch or opting for pre-built solutions. But think about it. You never start from absolute zero. When you begin developing an application, it isn't devoid of pre-existing libraries or systems. It's about identifying the point on the spectrum from which you initiate your development journey. In this episode, we speak with Hadi Chami from LEADTOOLS about how the key factors such as pricing, licensing model, support, maintenance, and the impact on the end product play significant roles in making this 'build versus buy' choice.   Hadi's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hadi-chami-002234131/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#248: When thinking about starting to learn a new technology, where do you start? Are you so busy at work that you're not able to spend any time learning something new? Are you concerned that when your company finally jumps on the AI bandwagon, will you be left behind? In this episode, Darin and Viktor talk about when and how you might want to start preparing yourself for the situation that will probably be arriving sooner than you think.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack:  https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#247: What do you think of when I say “Developer Relations”? Is it a person that flys from conference to conference giving talks? Is it someone that is chasing you down to scan your badge in a booth? What if the answer to both of those questions is both yes and no? In this episode, we speak with Lian Li about the realities of developer relations and how developer relations isn’t just something you buy off the shelf.   Lian’s contact information: X (Formerly Twitter): https://twitter.com/lianmakesthings LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lian-li/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#246: You may have been in the tech space for a number of years, but now you are ready to up-level and head down the path of being a DevOps Architect. However, you're not really sure where to begin. In this episode, Darin and Viktor give their opinions on where you should start and the two tools that you'll need to know how to use if you really want to capture a DevOps Architect role in an enterprise.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts:  https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#245: Imagine this. You think you've been hired into a team of all A players. Think Wayne Gretsky, Michael Jordan, Lionel Messi, etc. Instead, what's really happened is you've been assigned to the team that is nothing more than the people that played behind the people that played behind the A players. Yeah, you've been demoted to the third string team. You think, ok, at least I made a team and I'm not bagging groceries (is that still a thing?) down at the local market. Now that you're on a team, how do you plug in and help make the team better? In this episode, we speak with Dr. David Burkus about his latest book “Best Team Ever”. We go into the 3 key areas that both the manager and the players need to understand in order to actually create a team that might even be able to beat a team of A players.   David's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/davidburkus LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidburkus/ Website: https://davidburkus.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#244: 2023 is in the rearview mirror. Welcome to 2024, the year of our AI overlords. In this episode, Darin and Viktor make their predictions about all the technologies that will potentially impact our day to day work for both the good and the bad. Not surprisingly, AI is at the top of that list, but maybe not for the reasons that you might think.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#241: On today's episode, we go in depth with one of our friends, Whitney Lee. You may know her from her Enlightening series on Tanzu.TV or maybe from the You Choose videos she does with Viktor. But did you know just over 4 years ago, she was a server in a vegetarian restaurant and since that time she's spoken five times at KubeCon conferences - 2 of which were keynotes? What'll you'll learn is that just because you don't have a CS degree doesn't mean that you can't do great things in tech.   Whitney's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/wiggitywhitney LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/whitneylee/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#240: Imagine being handed a nicely-wrapped box containing Platform Engineering, much like when we were sold DevOps in a Box. An enigmatic gift, with potential benefits yet accompanied by potential complexities. It calls to question - how is this different from the countless developer platforms we've seen companies launch over the years?

#239: In this episode, Ville Aikas and Matt Moore from Chainguard join us for a discussion about open-source projects, distroless containers, and software security. They share their stories about the creation and progress of ChainGuard, offering insights into the way the company operates and contributes to the open-source community. They also delve into the value of improving the signal-to-noise ratio of vulnerability scanners and how this can aid in addressing software security problems. They also explain their commitment to the APK format and its advantages, as well as the significance of Wolfi, their '(un)distro', in maintaining vulnerability-free software environments.   Matt's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/mattomata LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattmoor/   Ville's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/aikasville LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/villeaikas/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#238: You might just now be reaching the point of containerizing your workloads and running them in Kubernetes. However, how do you go about accessing those workloads? You might have started with an ingress, because other options seemed like they were too complex. However, you've now crossed the point where you need that complexity. That's where service mesh can help you out. On this episode, we speak with Marino Wijay, Principal Developer Advocate at solo.io, about how service mesh has evolved over time, the challenges of adopting certain models, and the advantages of open-source solutions. We also talk about the differences between sidecar and sidecar-less models, and the circumstances in which either might be appropriate.   Marino's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/virtualized6ix LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mwijay/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#236: As you are heading into budget season for 2025, you're probably trying to figure out how to eliminate as much wasteful cloud spend as you can. But how did you get here? Instead of trying to reduce your cloud spend, maybe you should think about not spending the money in the first place. In this episode, we speak with Anton Grishko, Chief Architect at Profisea Labs, about the necessity of building cost-efficient architectures and how AI is reshaping the FinOps landscape.   Anton's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/antongrishko/   5 Effective FinOps Methods for Optimizing Your Cloud Costs https://profisealabs.com/blog/article/5-effective-finops-methods-for-optimizing-your-cloud-costs/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#235: In the mid-2000s, Werner Vogels introduced the idea of "you build it, you run it". This concept suggested that the same team responsible for building a product should also be responsible for running and maintaining it. However, despite the initial enthusiasm, we have yet to see this phrase truly materialize in practice. The industry has faced challenges in fully realizing the "build it, run it" philosophy. In this episode, we speak with Kaspar von Grünberg, founder & CEO at Humanitec, about why "shifting left" to the developers really isn't all it's cracked up to be and how instead cleaner abstractions can bridge the gap in understanding between non-technical managers and the developers in the trenches.   Kaspar's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/kaspar_official LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kvgruenberg/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses:  Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#234: The shift to cloud computing has greatly increased the popularity of infrastructure as code. But think about it. Cloud is nothing more than an abstraction on top of bare metal servers. Why can't we just as easily manage our bare metal servers as code as well? In this episode, we speak with Rob Hirschfeld, founder and CEO at RackN, about the challenges and opportunities of managing bare metal servers as code.   Rob's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/zehicle LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rhirschfeld/ Website: https://robhirschfeld.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#233: When you first start a job, you'll probably be doing good to get paired up with a senior person to walk you through the ropes. What if instead you could sit down and actually run through simulations that were created from actual events? In this episode, we talk with On Freund, Co-Founder and CEO at Wilco, about how Wilco can help not only individuals, but also companies needing to create better onboarding experiences for their employees and even their customers.   On's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/onfreund LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/onfreund/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#232: More than eighteen months in, Log4J appears to still be a huge problem for many organizations. What if there was a way to make sure those types of problems could be easily bubbled out to the right people at the right time in the tools they are already using? In this episode, we talk with Nir Valtman, CEO and co-founder at Arnica, about how protecting your source code, applications and people will help you minimize your risk.   Nir's contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ValtmaNir LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/valtmanir/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#231: We never thought that exposing our databases to the public internet was a good thing. However, when we started creating middleware API services that sat in front of those databases, we probably ended up doing almost the exact same type work that we did when we created the database schemas themselves. Somehow or another, we thought this was good, but in reality, it was not the right solution. In this episode, we speak with Tanmai Gopal, CEO and co-founder at Hasura, about how modern web APIs are developed and the role of modern databases in making development more efficient and scalable.   Tanmai's contact information:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/tanmaigo LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanmaig/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at:  https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#230: In today's digital age, it's no secret that relying solely on passwords for security is no longer an effective solution. We all understand the risks associated with using just passwords, but the question remains: what other alternatives do we have at our disposal? What if you could eliminate passwords all together and still make all your communications completely secure? In this episode, we speak with Mike Malone, Founder and CEO at Smallstep, about his background with OpenID and OAuth and how increasing security today doesn’t mean also increasing budgets.   Mike’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/mjmalone LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mmalone/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#229: When Kubernetes was first released in September 2014, the only way we could get applications installed to the cluster was by using kubectl apply and big, ugly YAML files. Since that time, many tools have been introduced to help manage application installation into Kubernetes clusters. However, no matter what tool you are using in 2023, under the hood, we’re still just submitting those big, ugly YAML files to the Kubernetes. Once you realize this, things become much clearer. In this episode, we take a stroll down memory lane of how it all started and what you should consider doing today when creating (or maybe not creating) the YAML files for your application.   Today’s sponsor: Save 25% on your first Barbaro Mojo order using the code "DevOps25” https://barbaromojo.com/discount/DevOps25   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/    Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#228: The Agile Manifesto is now more than 20 years old. However, even after all this time, instead of helping organizations create and deliver software faster to satisfy customer needs, many times Agile principles are turned into rigid processes that stifle innovation and limit customer satisfaction. Have far have we strayed from the core principles of the manifesto? In this episode, we talk with Paul Stovell, CEO and founder of Octopus Deploy, about the realities of Agile in 2023. Also, find out about the backstory of how Paul was able to snag the octopus.com domain.   Paul’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/paulstovell LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulstovell/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#227: Imagine this. You walk into your office and your manager pulls you to the side and says “Pack up your belongings. You’ve been made redundant. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.” Just like that, you no longer have a job. In even more extreme cases, just because a company exists today does not mean that it will exist tomorrow. Think about Enron, Blockbuster, Compaq and many others. At this point in history, it’s not if, but when, will you be laid off and what will you do? In this episode, we speak with Dagna Bieda, founder of theMindfulDev.com, about strategies to "layoff-proof" your engineering career, touching on topics like the role of AI in the industry, the importance of mental health, and the impact of our belief systems on our careers.   Dagna’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/dagnabieda LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dagnabieda/ Website: https://www.themindfuldev.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#226: Dependency on third-party providers is an inescapable reality of modern operations. However, expecting third-party providers to solve everything for you is highly unrealistic. Even if you had all the money in the world, you probably still would have issues with your operations. In this episode, we break down an article that discusses what level of support and services we should expect from third-party providers.   Cloud Dependencies Need to Stop F—ing Us When They Go Down https://thenewstack.io/cloud-dependencies-need-to-stop-f-ing-us-when-they-go-down/   Today’s sponsor: Save 25% on your first Barbaro Mojo order using the code "DevOps25” https://barbaromojo.com/discount/DevOps25   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#221: As an application developer, how often do you receive spreadsheets of findings from your security team? Do you drop everything you’re doing and work your way through the 57,239 findings during your existing sprint? Our guess is probably not. Even if you did, how would you know where to start? Just because a finding is marked as critical does not mean that it’s exploitable. In this episode, we speak with Ravid Circus, CPO at Seemplicity, about how you should be handling and remediating these security problems. Hint: it’s not by using spreadsheets, but rather it needs to be in your day to day work.   Ravid’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ravid-circus-302a8/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#220: DevOps has revolutionized software development and operations, enabling organizations to deliver software faster, with improved quality and collaboration. But as with any significant transformation, implementing DevOps comes with its own set of challenges. In this episode, we focus on the top challenges faced during the implementation of DevOps.

#218: Continuous testing has become an integral part of modern software development and delivery. It enables organizations to maintain high quality and agility in the face of rapid software iterations. But how can we harness the power of artificial intelligence to enhance and optimize the continuous testing process? In this episode, we speak with Bharath Vantari, Principal Presales at Perforce for Blazemeter, about how we should start thinking how we can add AI into our continuous testing process.   Bharath’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/BharathVantari LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bharathvantari/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#217: Extended Berkeley Packet Filter, or eBPF, has been making waves in the tech industry over the past few years. It's a technology that enables you to extend the functionality of the Linux kernel without having to write kernel modules. But what exactly is eBPF, and how does it impact our systems, networks, and security? In this episode, we speak with Liz Rice, Chief Open Source Officer with eBPF pioneers Isovalent, about where eBPF started and why you may never write a line of (byte)code of eBPF yourself.   Liz’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/lizrice LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizrice/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#216: As your team continues down the microservices journey, at some point you’ve probably hit the wall on being able to test against the versions of the other services that you really need to test. You could spin up new hardware, but that becomes very inefficient and very costly very quickly. Since you are running your production (and staging and QA) environments in Kubernetes, there has to be an easy way to do this type of testing. In this episode, we speak with Arjun Iyer, CEO and Co-founder at Signadot, about how sandboxes within your Kubernetes clusters can help with your testing problem without breaking the bank.   Arjun’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/arjuniyer_ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arjun-iyer-916332/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#214: When we first start developing applications, we probably also use a database. But at some point in time, we’ll probably hit a wall with that database because of changing business requirements. What are we supposed to do then? In this episode, we speak with Arjun Narayan, CEO of Materialize, about of a number of items ranging from why you should move from the no-win scenario of self-hosting to fully managed services and why you may be doing too much when building and orchestrating microservices.   Arjun’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/narayanarjun LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arjunravinarayan/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#213: You've been tasked with bringing a new SaaS product to market. Where do you start? Logically, or maybe not so much so, it's important to start by defining your target audience, understanding their needs, and developing a solution that meets those needs. You’ll also probably end up fighting the build from scratch versus modifying something that already exists battle. In this episode, we speak with Mav Turner, CTO of DevOps at Tricentis, about his thoughts on how to correctly assemble teams to get a product successfully launched and learning to love constraints.   Mav’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mav-turner-b5542a4/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#212: Let’s assume for a moment that you are building a SaaS that you want to turn into a product. Sure, you need to make sure your authentication works, but that’s really step 1 of potentially thousands of steps. Should you create all the services you really need to run a SaaS or should you pull something off the shelf? In this episode, we speak with Anton Zagrebelny, the co-founder and CTO of Stigg, about some of the reasons why you should use solutions that solve your problem instead of trying to build it yourself.   Anton’s contact information:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anton-zagrebelny/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#211: With the advent of video games like Minecraft and Roblox, kids are starting to learn to code at much younger ages than before. The question is are these kids going to be ready to become the computer programmers for the next generation?  In this episode, we speak with Jim Douglas, CEO at Armory, about the reality of what programming will look like in the future and what skills we need to be learning now if we don’t want to be displaced by middle school students.   Jim’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jidouglas/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints  https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#210: If you're feeling frustrated and overwhelmed due to your current database deployment and management process not working as expected, then you are not alone! Think about how many times you’ve needed to maintain the schema of your database and then you give up because it’s either going to break things or it’s going to take too long for a migration to happen.  In this episode, we speak with Sam Lambert, CEO of PlanetScale, about how running your own database should be considered a thing of the past and that you really shouldn’t be scared to make changes to your database schema when it's as simple as doing a rewind.   Sam’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/isamlambert LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isamlambert/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#209: Many people think they want to take their applications and run replicas of those applications on different cloud providers to mitigate risk. What if instead you created your applications to leverage the benefits of all the different cloud providers? In this episode, we speak with Chetan Venkatesh, CEO and founder of Macrometa, about why using multiple cloud services to run cookie cutter versions of your applications is actually a bigger problem than it might seem on the surface.   Chetan’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/chetan_ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chetanvenkatesh/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#207: When you begin building a SaaS product, it’s pretty straightforward. Open an account with one of the big 3 hyperscalers, upload your code, then profit! Ok, only those first two are guarantees. The third one is up for interpretation. In this episode, we speak with Yaniv Leven, VP of SaaS products at SQream, about what it was like to build a “native” SaaS product in 2016 and how that differs to converting a classical on-premise application to SaaS in 2023.   Yaniv’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/yanivleven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yanivleven/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#206: As an application developer, you’re probably used to pulling libraries from Maven Central, PyPI, or npm Registry. Has it ever crossed your mind how secure is this thing that I’m pulling or do you just YOLO so you can get the job done? In this episode, we speak with Stephen Chin, VP of Developer Relations at JFrog, about Pyrsia, an open source project that helps protect the open source supply chain so you can have confidence in the libraries that you use.   Stephen’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/steveonjava LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steveonjava/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#205: At the end of 2022, Werner Vogels, CTO at Amazon, published a blog post about the tech predictions for 2023 and (more importantly) beyond.

#204: When you think about managing data in an organization, you’re probably familiar with the concept of ETL: extract, transform and load. But in this world of new data tools, the order of transform and load can become problematic.  In today’s episode, we speak with Itamar Ben Hemo, Co-Founder and CEO at Rivery, about why you might want to consider flipping that order. We also discuss why if you aren’t using SaaS solutions for data management, you’re probably quickly falling behind your competitors.   Itamar’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Itamar_Hemo LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/itamar-ben-hemo-47080a5/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

203: Given a choice, would you rather have broken builds or flaky tests? At least with a broken build, you have certainty of what is happening. How do you go about eliminating both from your environment? In this episode, we speak with Ankit Jain, CEO at Aviator, about different ways you can approach these two issues. We also dive head first into the debate about whether you should be using a monorepo in your organization.   Ankit’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ankitjaindce/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ankitxg   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#202: How many people love Helm? Yeah, that’s what we thought. A lot of the time, you’re probably looking for an easier and simpler way to manage installing applications into a Kubernetes cluster.   You might be wishing that you could use something as simple as Docker Compose to do that, but you can’t see a way forward.   In this episode, we speak with Benjie De Groot, Co-Founder at Shipyard, about how approaching development from the human side instead of the machine side can make this possible.   Benjie’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bueller/ GitHub: https://github.com/bueller   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#201: As an application developer, we’re used to adding logging to our applications. We also work with our operations counterparts to enrich those logs to help them out when troubleshooting. But what happens during an incident when the logs are flowing so fast that neither you nor the operations people can keep up? That’s where machine learning can help.   In this episode, we speak with Ajay Singh, CEO at Zebrium, about why humans need help troubleshooting issues and how machine learning helps detect outliers and solve those last mile problems.   Ajay’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ajaysingh3/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#199: You’re probably used to hearing about using OpenTelemetry for your production troubleshooting. But have you considered using OpenTelemetry during your development lifecycle?   In this episode, we speak with Ran Nozik, CTO and co-founder of Helios, about the current state of OpenTelemetry and how using OpenTelemetry may save us a lot of time troubleshooting issues in production if we first start using while we are developing our applications.   Ran’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ran-nozik/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#198: It’s the dream that many of us have. We set out to build a service that gains a lot of adoption. However, we when reach that goal, we find that building something successful can make it an attractive target for attackers.   In this episode, we speak with Brian Smith, CTO of Spyderbat, about how traditional security tools don't meet the dynamic requirements of Kubernetes and that the processes we put in place to manage our runtime security need to be part of a shift-left approach.   Brian’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-smith-07a4191/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#197: Do you feel like you are working in a company that is not only behind the times but behind the century? If you feel stuck, is it because you’re too scared to search for another job and losing all the benefits you’ve accrued over the years at your current company?   In this episode, we talk about a couple of Reddit and Twitter threads that surprised us, but in reality, they shouldn’t have. It’s a very sobering reminder that not everyone is not only working on the latest and greatest, some are just now moving to technology that has already reached end of life.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#196: Where do you start when you work on optimizing the performance of your application? The number of options can seem overwhelming. Do you start with memory, CPU, network, or somewhere else? Even if you get it right, it's only right for right now and not next week when you release a new version of your application, at which point you start the performance optimization process all over again.   What if there was a way to continuously optimize for performance? That's where Granulate comes in.   In this episode, we talk with Noam Salinger, Director of Product Management at Granulate, about different ways you can optimize the performance of your applications and the basics that you might not even be doing today.   Noam’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/noam-salinger-313025126   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#195: Most companies have decades of legacy systems running their day-to-day business. They're difficult to replace with newer systems, and they're costly to maintain. But they also offer security, stability, and consistency. The challenge is deciding how to make them work in the modern world.   In this episode, we talk with Robert Cooke, CTO and Founder at 3forge, about why replacing legacy systems is not a simple as just doing it and also why open source may not be the answer that everyone thinks it is.   Robert’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-cooke-a7835b69/ Website: https://3forge.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#194: Whether you are doing greenfield development with microservices or are doing brownfield development migrating monoliths to microservices, there’s one thing that you have to get right when testing those microservices, otherwise you will fail. What is that one thing?   Culture.   If you don’t get the culture right, no amount of technology will fix the problems that you have now or in the future.   In this episode, we talk with Darko Fabijan, co-founder of Semaphore, about the process and structure you need to follow when migrating away from monoliths and how to make sure that you get the culture right in order to succeed in the long term.   Darko’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/darkofabijan LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darkofabijan/ Podcast: https://semaphoreci.com/podcast   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#193: As a database administrator, you probably want to spend more time trying to make things better for people using your database instead of always chasing down the latest tuning parameters or queries that are causing problems. There are only 24 hours in a day and you’re not sure if you’ll ever be able to really make things any better with the schema changes and data volume that are constantly being thrown at the database you manage.   In this episode, we talk with Andy Pavlo, CEO at OtterTune, about the knobs that should be turned in Postgres or MySQL before you even start trying to do any index or query tuning.

#189: In the distant past, we used punchcards and dumb terminals to program. Then came the advent of the personal computer and we started developing locally on our machines. There are now new offerings that allow us to use pretty much any device that has a web browser to do all our programming. One of those offerings is Gitpod.   On this episode, we speak with Chris Weichel, CTO of Gitpod, about the history of Gitpod and why the standard developer machine is ripe for disruption.   Chris’ contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/csweichel LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-weichel-740b4224/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#188: Just because you’ve run some chaos experiments against your system doesn’t mean you are ready to fend off wide ranging and prolonged attacks. It just means that you might be ready for the attacks you’ve created experiments for. Why? Because you probably didn’t actually fully load your systems with persistent and ever-changing attacks.   In this episode, we talk with Benjamin Wilms, CEO of Steadybit, about why just running chaos experiments is just one part of helping make your systems resilient and why capturing what happens in real-life incidents can help you create even better experiments.   Benjamin’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrbwilms LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamin-wilms/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#187: When writing tests that need to talk to a data source, you're usually faced with a couple of options. The first one is that you setup a database server on your machine. The problem with that is what happens when other developers need to run those same tests? They have to setup the database too.   The other option is you can mock your database connections. However, it's hard to keep your mock up to date with the latest features of the database you are using. What if there was another option you could use? Enter Testcontainers.   In this episode we speak with Sergei Egorov from AtomicJar about the history of Testcontainers and how to implement it into your development processes.   Sergei’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/bsideup LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsideup/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#186: Most companies say they want their application developers to be shipping more code faster and faster. However, those same companies don’t do enough to help the application developers be successful at doing that.   In this episode, we speak with Ankit Bhati, co-founder and CEO at Amnic, about how by providing a unified operating platform for your application developers will not only help speed up the work that those developers do, but also reduce the risk in running the applications that go through this platform.   Ankit’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ankitbhati/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#184: The public cloud is a powerful tool that allows businesses to outsource their data and compute to ensure security, availability, scalability, and reliability. But like many tools, they cannot be used best without understanding the total cost of ownership. By cost, we really mean cold, hard cash.   In this episode, we talk with Jason Yaeger, Co-Founder & CEO of Tenacity Cloud, about how Tenacity is tackling the problem of helping businesses understand their true cloud costs and why you shouldn't trust your cloud provider to give you the best possible discounts.   Jason’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/jasnoyaeger LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonyaeger/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#182: As developers, we've all started at least a few side projects. Sometimes they're just for fun, or as a way of learning something new.   Other times you find yourself building something really cool that might even turn out to be your life's work. If you're able to run that project and grow it to a sizable monthly revenue, you could sell it and potentially do whatever you want for the rest of your life.   In this episode, we talk with Ryan Kulp about the path he took to get to Merge Freeze and how you might be able to follow a similar path.   Ryan’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ryanckulp Website: https://www.ryanckulp.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#181: Once you have your Kubernetes cluster up and running, what do you do next? One option is to monitor it and make sure everything is running smoothly.   On this episode, we talk with Ruben Hakopian, the founder of Kubevious, about how the project started and how you can start using it today.   Ruben’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/rubenhak LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rubenhak   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#180: At a time when big data and machine learning are transforming the enterprise, it is hard to see what is coming next. The answer: artificial intelligence. The transformation of AI into AIOps — machine learning in the cloud that continuously learns and optimizes predictive models — may be the next game-changer for businesses, but how can you get started?   In this episode, we speak with Richard Whitehead, CTO at Moogsoft, about where AIOps is in 2022, and why the humans shouldn’t fear for their jobs…yet.   Richard’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/rwhitehead LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardwhitehead/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#179: For many decades, the use of service level objectives (SLOs) in IT has been a routine part of day-to-day business. The objectives are based on measurable impacts that each individual customer or operational unit should experience with a specific IT service. These SLOs are typically associated with costs and benefits that can be tracked over time.   But what do you need to do if you are new to SLOs? What are the pitfalls associated with introducing SLOs into an environment where they have not yet been a part of the culture? For those of you that have been working with IT for any length of time, there has probably been one idea in the IT space that has received more flak from different teams than anything else. Many people and teams still do not understand what SLOs are, how to use them and why some companies use them and others do not.   In this episode, we speak with Brian Singer, the Chief Product Officer at Nobl9, about the mechanics of implementing and maintaining SLOs in your organization.   Brian’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/brian_singer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briantsinger/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#178: Observability has been around since the dawn of computing. Around 1992, BPF was introduced. It gave us the ability to do network packet filtering. Around 22 years later in 2014, eBPF was included in Linux kernel 3.18, building on top of what was available with BPF. Now in 2022, eBPF is helping to supercharge Kubernetes observability.   In this episode, we speak with Shachar Azulay, CEO and Co-Founder of groundcover, about how eBPF is changing how we monitor our Kubernetes clusters in five minutes or less.   Shachar’s information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shahar-azulay-54156bb4/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#177: Imagine this. What if you could magically turn your 20 year old Java and .NET applications into modern, containerized applications without having to spend years doing it? Also, what if you could do this with the help of AI? Seems too good to be true?   In this episode, we speak with Bob Quillin, Chief Ecosystem Officer at vFunction, about the classical and painful ways we’ve tried to do application modernization in the past and how AI is helping to reduce a lot of those pain points in 2022.   Bob’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/bobquillin LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bob-quillin-46802511/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#176: Many people ask us what they need to do in order to start a career in DevOps. The usual initial question is “what technologies do I need to learn?” What if we told you that you shouldn’t necessarily start with the tech but with something else?   In this episode, we speak with Sashank Purighalla, CEO and Founder of BOS Framework, about the critical skills that every engineer should master in order to start and grow their DevOps career.   Sashank’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/sashankbos LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sashankpurighalla/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#175: When most people start with low-code and no-code applications, they log in to a user interface, fill in some forms and do a lot of pointing and clicking. As we’ve learned over the years, that is just an invitation for long-term trouble. What if were possible to treat our low-code and no-code application development the same way as we treat our normal application development?   In this episode, we speak with Gil Hoffer, Co-Founder and CTO of Salto, about a number of issues around the low-code and no-code application development ecosystem and why you might want to consider approaching these development processes in a more standard way.   Gil’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/gilhoffer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gilhoffer/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#174: As more and more companies start to use low-code and no-code solutions within their organizations, how many of them are actually evaluating their security posture? Do these organizations not realize they are literally giving away the keys to their kingdoms to third party providers?   In this episode, we speak with Alon Jackson, CEO and Co-Founder at Astrix Security, about how these internally produced low-code and no-code applications present even further security risks due to the lack of professional security processes for these applications.   Alon's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackson-alon/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#173: How much time have you wasted writing YAML files, helm charts or Kustomize configurations? What if deployments to Kubernetes could be as simple as drag and drop?   In this episode, we speak with Dom Holt, the CEO of Harpoon, about how Harpoon can make this drag and drop dream become reality.   Dom’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominicholt/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#172: As a developer, we might think we know how our application is going to run in production. We know we’ll need a web server, an application server and a database. But what we might not know is how popular (or unpopular) our application is going to be and what the actual sizing is that we’ll need in order to optimally run our application.   In this episode, we speak with Maxim Melamedov from Zesty about the different models that need to be taken into account when not only designing and writing our applications but also operating them at scale.   Maxim’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maximmelamedov/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#171: How many hours a day do you think you code? 5? 4? Maybe 3?   What if I told you that you were only averaging 52 minutes each day?   In this episode, we talk with Mason McLead, CTO at Software, about the Code Time Report they released. In this report, you may discover that a few key secrets to help you increase your time in front of your IDE and less time in meetings.   Mason’s contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mmclead/   Global Code Time Report https://www.software.com/reports/code-time-report   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/ Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#170: Containers are one of the quickest ways we can move away from a traditional server-centric architecture, as they allow us to host software "in the cloud" without over-provisioning resources or managing infrastructure like we did with virtual machines.   What do you think about when you hear edge computing? Is it CDN, serverless functions, or something else? All of these definitions can be heavily related to the concept of edge computing. The term itself is ambiguous and hard to grasp.   But what happens when you try to run containers at the edge? In this episode, we speak with Dan Bartholomew, Co-Founder & CTO at Section, about how running containers at the edge is much more than deciding what city to run your container in.   Dan’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/dbartholomew LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-bartholomew-27baa625/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#169: With the development trend toward cloud services, developers need to build and deploy applications in this new paradigm. However, it may be difficult to determine what is possible and what is not, because building on a cloud service can lead to unforeseen difficulties that require a more complex solution.   In this episode, we speak with Ala and Aaron from Klotho about how complexity cannot be avoided as well as how operations teams are on the rise.   Ala’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/alashiban LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alashiban/   Aaron’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/aarontorres LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/torresaaron/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#167: When you install vanilla Kubernetes, which security option do you take? Trick question. There are no options. It is always installed wide open. If you're just experimenting, that's probably not a big deal.   However, how many times have we had an experiment turn into a production system? Probably too many times to count. At that point, retrofitting security into your Kubernetes cluster is near impossible.   In this episode, we speak with Lachlan Evenson about his thoughts on the proper strategies to secure your Kubernetes clusters.   Lachlan’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/LachlanEvenson   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#166: In-person events are starting to ramp back up. However, there are plenty of online conferences. Worse yet, some companies are still trying to do hybrid events.   In this episode, we dig into what makes for a bad online experience and some different ways that event organizers should consider to make the experience better for attendees.   Robin’s blog posts: Remote-First Developer Advocacy https://rmoff.net/2022/04/07/remote-first-developer-advocacy/   Hanging up my Boarding Passes and Jetlag…for now https://rmoff.net/2022/04/07/hanging-up-my-boarding-passes-and-jetlagfor-now/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#164: When you create a monolithic application, it's usually not a huge deal to add in some form of monitoring to keep track of what is happening when. However, when you start writing numerous microservices, specifically functions as a service, the ability to simply and easily keep track of what is happening when is thrown out the window.   In this episode, we speak with Aviad Mor, CTO of Lumigo, about how to monitor large numbers of microservices and how to debug them when something goes wrong.   Aviad’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/aviadmor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aviadmor/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#163: When you first start out with Kubernetes, probably the last thing on your mind is how much it costs. So how does one figure out what a Kubernetes cluster costs?   In this episode, we speak with Webb Brown from Kubecost about the tradeoffs between hard cost, optimization and efficiency.   Webb’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/webb_brown LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/webbbrown/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#162: Ever since the release of web applications, performance testing tools have been around to help analyze load times and many other aspects of those applications.   However, many of those performance testing tools require you to learn vendor specific languages or you're forced to point and click in order to create your tests. These requirements to use those tools made it really unpleasant for developers to create and maintain tests.   In this episode, we speak with Nicole van der Hoeven about k6, a modern load testing tool built for developers.   Nicole’s contact information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/n_vanderhoeven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nvanderhoeven/ Website: https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#161: When an incident happens in a company, what happens? Usually people are running around trying to figure out what is going on and not communicating very well.   Most likely, that is because there is not a clear process for how to handle an incident. This is also an indicator that practicing and preparing for incidents is not part of the company culture.   In this episode, we with speak with Matt Davis and Jake Englund from Blameless about their experiences about how practice can help remediate issues more quickly and why you should do it yourself.   Matt’s info: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattcookedavis/   Jake’s info: Twitter: https://twitter.com/srejake LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zeblith/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#160: If you are new to Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), you may be a little overwhelmed. There are so many tools and technologies out there to choose from, and it can be difficult knowing where to start. You may have heard of or even tried some of the tools on your own, but without success.   What if we told you that the tools that you need to get started with CI/CD already exist on your laptop?   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#159: In the age of microservices and containers, Kubernetes has become one of the most popular ways to manage application deployment and lifecycle management. However, it can be difficult to know when it's necessary or appropriate to use Kubernetes.   In this episode, we attempt to answer the question "when should I use Kubernetes?" We also talk about the right and wrong ways to use Kubernetes.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#158: Security is a paramount concern for many organizations today due to remote work. The typical starting point is a VPN client is installed on workers devices. But is using a VPN really that secure?   In this episode, we talk with Mike Guthrie from NetFoundry about an alternative approach to security that is not only Zero Trust, but also open source. OpenZiti is an open source project focused on bringing Zero Trust not only to network connect, but also to the communication between applications.   Mike’s contact info: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-guthrie-b4b4a024/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/mguthrie88   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#157: You're sitting at home and all of a sudden, you have a new business idea. You message a few of your friends and they agree that it is a great idea. You take out a few pieces of paper and start brainstorming. But then you have a bad feeling. The idea is too vague or too complicated to explain or you cannot decide whether to pursue it any further. How do you decide what to do?   In this episode, we speak with Aharale Batonia about what it's like to create and work in a startup and how you might go about creating and running your own startup.   Aharale’s contact info: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aharale/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/aharaleb   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#156: When you are writing an API, do you first create an OpenAPI document and then generate code or do you create your code and then generate an OpenAPI document? Regardless of how you create it, how do you know that when your API is running that it is actually doing what you’ve said it will do?   In this episode, we speak with Guy Levinger, CTO of BLST Security, about all things API and about their open source tool named Cherrybomb.   Guy’s information: Twitter: https://twitter.com/guylevinger1 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/guy-levinger-b8638413a Website: https://www.blstsecurity.com/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#155: Do you know what the difference is between a project and a product in your day job? After years of working with clients as well as working in open source, we've figured out the differences between a project and a product, why it's important to know the differences, and how you can use this knowledge to build better products.   In this episode, Darin and Viktor walk you through what they are and why they're different, as well as provide insight into how these concepts can impact your day-to-day work.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#154: What are the right and wrong ways organizations help their application developers be more productive? Should those organizations have the mentality of my way or the highway or should they allow the application developers they’ve hired to run the shop?   Interestingly, the answer is somewhere in the middle.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#153: Cloud has been around in an organization for a number of years and has had many, many employees and contractors managing the cloud assets. These assets have been created in numerous ways. Sometimes Terraform was used. Other times, a script was written that used the CLI provided by the cloud vendor. Finally, other assets were created by pointing and clicking in the console.   You’ve been recently hired into this company to fix the mess that they are in.

#137: Many application developers have either been hearing about or having thrust upon them the concept of shifting left. But now in some places, even infrastructure is trying to get in on the game. However, to believe that application developers can correctly build, maintain, secure, and govern infrastructure is a failed experiment unless they are getting a lot of help. In trying to answer this question from Momodu, we think that we have a few possible actions that organizations can take to take this from failed experiment to a success.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Kubernetes Chaos Engineering With Chaos Toolkit And Istio https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/chaos/   Canary Deployments To Kubernetes Using Istio and Friends https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/canary/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#127: Even though it is 2021, many application development organizations still follow the decades-old process of throwing software over the wall to an operations team to deploy. This practice causes operational difficulties like organizational silos, poor collaboration, and poor user experience.   As software continues to become more complicated, application environments that are properly supported by operations teams will be needed for successful deployment into production.   But what does "properly supported by operations teams" really mean? Does it mean they are processing their Jira tickets faster or does it mean that they have provided services so they are no longer injecting delay into the delivery process?   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox/   Books and Courses: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/catalog/   Kubernetes Chaos Engineering With Chaos Toolkit And Istio https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/chaos/   Canary Deployments To Kubernetes Using Istio and Friends https://www.devopstoolkitseries.com/posts/canary/   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

#120: From everyday conversations to important messages, words have a profound effect on our lives. As we are finding out in today's society (and really throughout time), words really do matter, especially from a technical perspective.

#116: Individuals typically love to chase the new bright shiny technology objects. However, most enterprises go in the exact opposite direction and want any "new" technology to be fully proven out, i.e. for years, before that technology has a chance to actually be turned into a live production system.
