    Okteto: Cloud-Native Applications on Kubernetes with Ramiro Berreleza

    Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration system. It makes managing container clusters possible as well as deploying code changes to these containers. Microservice architecture is widely used today in large part because of Kubernetes. However, using it can require a large time commitment due to its learning curve. The company Okteto empowers developers to innovate and deliver cloud-native applications faster than ever. Okteto CLI lets developers deploy realistic replicas of their stack on Kubernetes and updates it for continuous deployments. It also manages different code environments, self-service access, and container scaling automatically. In this episode, we talk with Ramiro Berreleza, Founder and CEO of Okteto, about managing Kubernetes clusters with Okteto. Sponsorship inquiries: sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com

    Hedera Hashgraph: Proof-of-Stake Public Networks with Leemon Baird

    Blockchain protocols like Bitcoin and Ethereum have changed the cyber world dramatically in the last decade. They’ve created communities of like-minded developers, generated new financial markets, and popularized “decentralization” in computer networks. However, they require large resources to operate which makes scaling difficult and transactions expensive. Hedera is a decentralized public network that takes the previous innovations a step further. The Hedera Consensus and Token service enables developers to make tokens and create publicly verifiable and scalable timestamps for any application at an incredibly fast speed, highest grade security, and extremely low bandwidth consumption. In this episode, we talk to Leemon Baird, Founder and Chief Scientist at Hedera Hashgraph. We discuss proof-of-stake public networks, the hashgraph consensus, and the future of blockchains.

    Reverse ETL: Operationalizing Data Warehouses with Tejas Manohar

    Enterprise data warehouses store all company data in a single place to be accessed, queried, and analyzed. They’re essential for business operations because they support managing data from multiple sources, providing context, and have built-in analytics tools. While keeping a single source of truth is important, easily moving data from the warehouse to other applications is invaluable. The company Hightouch provides tools that easily move data from your warehouse to important business tools like Salesforce, Apache Airflow, Tableau and more. Hightouch uses SQL to move and transform your data and tracks every row to avoid moving data that hasn’t changed. Failed rows are retried, and all changes to rows are logged. In this episode, we talk to Tejas Manohar, Founder of Hightouch. We talk about reverse ETL, managing data across multiple systems, and how Hightouch helps companies operationalize their data warehouse. Sponsorship inquiries: sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com

    Shoreline: Fleet Automation with Anurag Gupta

    In today’s containerized world, it’s common to encounter similar issues with known solutions across multiple pods. For most people there are 2 solutions: go pod-by-pod finding and fixing the problem, or do that while also spending months trying to automate that process. This is significant time and manual labor. The company Shoreline orchestrates real-time debugging and automated repair across fleets. Shoreline makes it easy to define metrics, alarms, actions, and bots from the CLI that take action like draining and terminating nodes tagged for retirement or finding TLS certificates that are close to expiring. For unknown issues, Shoreline lets you debug across every pod from a single CLI rather than SSHing pod-by-pod, like running a command to grep for errors. In this episode, we talk with Anurag Gupta, Founder and CEO of Shoreline. Full disclosure: Shoreline is a sponsor of Software Engineering Daily.

    CockroachDB: Distributed Databases and Containerization with Spencer Kimball

    In 2003, Google developed a robust cluster management system called Borg. This enabled them to manage clusters with tens of thousands of machines, moving them away from virtual machines and firmly into container management. Then, in 2014, they open sourced a version of Borg called Kubernetes, or K8s. Now, in 2021, CockroachDB is a distributed database designed with Kubernetes architecture in mind. CockroachDB uses regular SQL and scales by automatically distributing data and workload demands. Their databases survive machine, datacenter, and region failures, and provide guaranteed ACID compliant transactions. In this episode, we talk to Spencer Kimball, CEO at Cockroach Labs, about distributed databases and containerization. Full disclosure: Cockroach Labs is a sponsor of Software Engineering Daily.

    Data Lineage: Understanding Data Lineage at Scale with Julien Le Dem

    Big Data has exploded the past decade as cloud computing and more efficient hardware made scaling essentially limitless. Products like Uber revolve entirely around analyzing data to provide rides. According to an EMC/IDC study, there was approximately 5.2TB of data for every person in 2020. That estimate was made before the transition to remote work, which likely makes it much higher. The term “data lineage” refers to the collection, origin, storage, transfer, and use of data over time. Given the size of the Big Data industry and related industries, maintaining a thorough data lineage, even within small companies, can be very difficult. It becomes especially challenging at scale. What innovative tools make understanding all this information possible? Can data really continue growing at this rate? In this episode we talk with Julien Le Dem, CTO and Co-Founder at Datakin. We discuss the challenges, available tools, and future for big data and data lineage. Sponsorship inquiries: sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com
