DOP 277: Making Security Tooling Easy for Developers

21 augusti 2024 | 45 min

#277: Developers are often caught in a challenging position. They are keen to write code, innovate, hack, and build new things. However, when security measures are perceived as long, difficult, and cumbersome tasks, these essential protocols tend to be avoided or improperly implemented. The key is to balance the pursuit of creativity with the need for robust security.

The idea is simple yet profound: by ensuring that security tools are straightforward and user-friendly, developers are more likely to incorporate them into their workflow. This not only benefits the developer but also the entire organization by safeguarding the product from potential vulnerabilities.

DOP 241: From Restaurant Server to KubeCon Keynote in Under 4 Years

13 december 2023 | 47 min

#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.

DOP 240: Supercharging Developer Workflows with Simplified Platform Engineering

6 december 2023 | 47 min

#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?

In this episode, we speak with Mauricio Salatino about his take on where platform engineering is today and where it's headed in the future.

DOP 238: Unlocking the Potential of Modern Architectures Using Service Mesh

22 november 2023 | 49 min

#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.

8 november 2023 | 42 min

#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.

DOP 235: Diving Into Platform Engineering Trends With Humanitec

1 november 2023 | 45 min

#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.

DOP 234: Better Bare Metal Infrastructure Management With RackN

25 oktober 2023 | 50 min

#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.

DOP 231: Automating API Development With Hasura

4 oktober 2023 | 39 min

#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.

DOP 230: Simplifying End-to-End Encryption With Smallstep

27 september 2023 | 43 min

#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.

DOP 229: The Evolution of Installing Applications into Kubernetes

20 september 2023 | 47 min

#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.

DOP 227: Layoff-Proofing Your Career

6 september 2023 | 50 min

#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.

#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.

DOP 221: Treat Security Like a Bug With Seemplicity

#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.

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.

#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.

12 april 2023 | 46 min

#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.

DOP 204: Transform Data From Managed to Actionable With Rivery

29 mars 2023 | 38 min

#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.

DOP 203: Dealing With Flaky Tests and Broken Builds With Aviator

22 mars 2023 | 41 min

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.

DOP 202: Go From Docker Compose to Kubernetes Using Shipyard

15 mars 2023 | 54 min

#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.

DOP 201: Getting to the Root Cause With Zebrium

8 mars 2023 | 47 min

#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.

#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.

#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.

DOP 196: Simplifying Performance Optimization Using Granulate

1 februari 2023 | 35 min

#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.

DOP 195: Why Do Companies Not Replace Legacy Systems?

25 januari 2023 | 52 min

#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.

DOP 194: How To Write Test Cases for Microservices

18 januari 2023 | 42 min

#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.

DOP 193: Automatic AI-Powered Database Tuning Using OtterTune

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.

DOP 189: Code Anywhere on Any Device With Gitpod

14 december 2022 | 46 min

#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.

DOP 188: Foster a Culture of Resilience With Steadybit

#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.

DOP 187: Simplify Testing With Testcontainers

30 november 2022 | 46 min

#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.

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.

DOP 182: Why You Should Start a Side Project

#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.

DOP 179: What Are Service Level Objectives?

5 oktober 2022 | 43 min

#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.

DOP 178: Kubernetes Observability Using eBPF

28 september 2022 | 35 min

#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.

7 september 2022 | 45 min

#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?

DOP 170: Running Containers at the Edge

3 augusti 2022 | 40 min

#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.

DOP 169: How To Reduce Cloud Development Complexity

27 juli 2022 | 44 min

#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.

DOP 167: How To Secure Kubernetes

13 juli 2022 | 48 min

#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.

DOP 164: How To Monitor and Debug Microservices

22 juni 2022 | 37 min

#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.

DOP 162: Performance Testing With k6

8 juni 2022 | 47 min

#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.

DOP 161: Why Incidents Are Slowing Down Companies

1 juni 2022 | 48 min

#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.

DOP 153: Eliminate Cloud Chaos With Firefly

6 april 2022 | 33 min

#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. Where are you going to start?

In this episode, we speak with Eran Bibi from Firefly about why you might want to try to get a handle on the unmanaged assets first before you do anything else.

DOP 128: Securing Your Environments With a Universal Secrets Manager

13 oktober 2021 | 32 min

#128: You know that securing environments with a secrets manager is something that needs constant upkeep. Sometimes secrets management can be difficult and complex to handle. Thankfully, there are universal secrets managers which make the process of managing secrets simple for everyone, not just the DevOps and security teams.

Today, we talk with Brian Vallelunga, founder and CEO of Doppler, about how universal secrets management differs from secrets storage and secrets management will be changing over the coming years.

DOP 127: Software Development vs Software Delivery

6 oktober 2021 | 23 min

#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?

DOP 126: What Is Bare Metal in Cloud Computing?

29 september 2021 | 36 min

#126: If you're like most people, you're probably wondering what "bare metal" means. Turns out, it's a term that's been thrown around for decades. And if you're wondering how it can be applied to something like cloud computing, you might be surprised to find out that it is different than you might think.

In this episode, we speak with Ian McClarty, the president of phoenixNAP, about their bare metal cloud offering and how your organization's profit and loss statement can influence where you host your infrastructure.

DOP 125: What Is the Low Code Movement?

22 september 2021 | 39 min

#125: Low code is a movement that aims to further automate the development of systems and software. By doing so, it reduces the time spent on building custom applications. Low code is becoming more popular because it provides high-value features with less development time, which ultimately helps companies save money.

In today's episode, we speak with Mike Fitzmaurice, WEBCON's Chief Evangelist, about all things low code and why DevOps usually doesn't even factor in to low code solutions.

DOP 124: Fake Data Rules the World

15 september 2021 | 35 min

#124: If you are an application developer, more than likely you work with some sort of data set. But what do you do when you have sensitive data like credit card numbers, social security numbers or something as simple as a first and last name?

Enter Tonic.ai and their solution: de-identification of data. They take your sensitive data and de-identify it and then they give you a sanitized version of that same data that you can use to do your job without the risk of leaking the real data.

In today's episode, we speak with Adam Kamor, a Co-founder and Head of Engineering of Tonic.ai, about their solution and approach to creating fake data.

DOP 123: Simplifying Microservice Development

8 september 2021 | 30 min

#123: When you have an application designed using the microservice architecture, where the microservice being developed interact with other services using events from messaging queues and HTTP requests, how can you avoid having all the services on your laptop and still have isolation between different application developers? We will discuss some techniques that can be used to simplify your development process even when you have a complex system with a large number of services.

As we are finding out in today's society (and really throughout time), words really do matter, especially from a technical perspective. But what happens when a word is used out of context or incorrectly? In this episode, we argue that it's time to take a very specific word out of our technical vocabulary.

#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. How can we help convince management to think differently?

DOP 90: Event Driven Continuous Delivery With Keptn

13 januari 2021 | 41 min

#90: Email. Slack. Kubernetes. These things have at least one thing in common. They are all event-driven. Even if you don't agree with that statement, we can agree that asynchronous development has taken off in the past few years, thus exploding the concepts of event-driven. We are now starting to see these concepts arriving in tooling space. We speak with Andi Grabner about Keptn, an event-based control plane for continuous delivery and automated operations for cloud-native applications.

28 augusti 2019 | 22 min
