Serverless computing is a cloud computing solution that lets developers deploy applications to containers without managing the servers themselves. Servers and resources are provisioned automatically, pay only for what you use, and experience little to no errors or downtime (ionos).

Google Cloud Run is a managed compute platform that enables you to run containers that are invocable via requests or events. Cloud Run is serverless, transparent, and easy to use. Common use cases include web services like REST APIs, data processing, automation, and modernization (cloud.google.com).

In this episode, we talk with Steren Giannini, Senior Product Manager at Google.

Latency is the time it takes to get from point A to point B. In programming, this might be the time from a user selecting their photos library to the pictures reaching their computer screen from the database. 

Fly.io is a simple platform for running full-stack apps and databases close to your users. Some available features include provisioning CPU, memory and storage based on your app’s demand, zero-configuration private networking and global load balancing, metrics and alerting, and managing SSL certificates at any scale. Fly.io beta is launching highly available PostgreSQL clusters with a single command and creating read replicas in different cities.

In this episode, we talk with Kurt Mackey, Social Media Manager at Fly.io.

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.

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.
