Jaeger, with Yuri Shkuro

Hosts: Craig Box, Adam Glick

Jaeger is a distributed tracing platform built at Uber, and open-sourced in 2016. It traces its evolution from a Google paper on distributed tracing, the OpenZipkin project, and the OpenTracing libraries. Yuri Shkuro, creator of Jaeger and author of Mastering Distributed Tracing, joins Craig and Adam to tell the story, and explain the hows and whys of distributed tracing.

Introducing Krustlet, the WebAssembly Kubelet

Krustlet is designed to run as a Kubernetes Kubelet. It’s similar in design to Virtual Kubelet. It listens on the Kubernetes API event stream for new pods. Based on specific Kubernetes tolerations, the Kubernetes API will schedule pods onto Krustlet, which in turn runs them under a WASI-based runtime (more specifically, either wasmtime or waSCC, depending on which Runtime Provider they choose).

Extending Kubernetes with Operators

Having attended the last two European KubeCon events (2018 and 2019), it’s become increasingly obvious that operators are becoming a hot topic within the community.
There were zero sessions on operators in 2018, whereas there were 9 in 2019. There’s even a dedicated OperatorCon hosted by Loodse at this year’s (unfortunately postponed) KubeCon!
I also had the pleasure of attending the Operator Framework Workshop session delivered by Red Hat. This was an excellent session which covered the basics of Operators and how to create them using the Operator Framework.

Controlling outbound traffic from Kubernetes

Late last year, we wrapped up a major networking project which let us control internal traffic in our platform (read about it here). This gave us a lot of confidence that malicious code or an intruder compromising an individual microservice wouldn't be able to hurt our customers.

De-risking custom technology projects
A handbook for state grantee budgeting and oversight

This handbook is designed for executives, budget specialists, legislators, and other "non-technical" decision-makers who fund or oversee state government technology projects that receive federal funding and implement the necessary technology to support federal programs. It can help you set these projects up for success by asking the right questions, identifying the right outcomes, and equally important, empowering you with a basic knowledge of the fundamental principles of modern software design.
