KubeCon/CloudNativeCon Series

This is the first episode in the series we're doing at KubeCon Seattle. In it, James explains how his company is jumping from one public cloud to another with the help of Kubernetes. He also covers why they're doing it and shares his top tips for anyone else contemplating such a move.

Please forgive the dodgy audio. I'm working with some new audio equipment, and it may take a couple more shows to iron out the wrinkles.

Ep62: Cloud Jumping, with James Bowes

What do you do when your employer needs you to convert a huge catalog of music into new formats? You jump head-first into Kubernetes and build a scalable environment for executing batch and on-demand encoding workloads. At least that's what these guys did. Find out how they did it, what tools they employed, what they did right, and what they might have done differently. This is Day Two of the KubeCon series.

Ep63: Leigh and John's Excellent Encoding Adventure

Migrating from legacy systems is time consuming, expensive, and risky--even if you're not a company that millions of people depend on for a ride. So what drove Lyft to make the move? How did they do it? And how did they manage to preserve service levels throughout the process? Lita explains it all in Part Three of our KubeCon/CloudNativeCon series.

Ep95: All about Service Mesh, with Idit Levine

Agile software development has inadvertently put security in the hands of developers--for better or for worse. Do your developers know this? Do they care? How do you and your security team ensure you're shipping secure software while still moving fast? 

In this episode we'll speak with Guy and Gareth about how we got where we are when it comes to security, which roles developers and the security team should play, and how to build security tools into the developer workflow in a way that is seamless.

Ep96: Embedding security into the development process, with Guy Podjarny and Gareth Rushgrove

Whether you're a seasoned IT pro, a total beginner, or any of the things  in-between, there is always room to learn more in this industry. Maybe you need to wrap your brain around containers--or figure out Kubernetes specifically. Maybe you want to get your Google Cloud certification, or expand your understanding of blockchain. The list of things you could choose to learn is seriously never-ending. The question (for most of us) is where do we learn it? 

In this episode we chat with Christophe Limpalair and Ell Marquez of the Linux Academy about what they teach, who they teach, how they teach, and how just about anyone can get involved--for free! 

This is the last session in the KubeCon series. I swear.

Ep97: How to keep your skill set fresh, with Ell Marquez and Christophe Limpalair
