DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling

Ephemeral & Preview Environments for Compose and Kubernetes


Listen Later

Bret and Nirmal are joined by Grayson Adkins and Josh Thurman on the show. They are co-founders of Uffizzi, an environments-as-a-service company for Docker Compose and Kubernetes.

😇 My new GitHub Security workshop has launched! A free 2-hour workshop with hands-on labs to harden your repos and your workflows from common supply chain attacks. I'll cover how attackers are getting in, and then we'll lock down a sample repo so you know what needs to be done to protect your code. You'll leave with a deep understanding of risks and mitigations as well as a list of helpful tools to keep your repos safe, including my new "gasa" tool for scanning your repos and orgs.

We talk about ephemeral environments in all their forms. You might call them preview environments, developer environments, or pull release environments, which is my favorite way to use these environments-as-a-service.

But regardless of the many ways to use ephemeral environments,  it's great to see a growing set of tools in the cloud native community for automating the spinning up of fresh environments with Kubernetes manifests, helm charts, or even Docker Compose YAML.

Uffizzi is using the open core model, meaning that the core part of their product is open source.

Live recording of the complete show from August 24, 2023 is on YouTube (Ep. #231). Includes demos.
