Data integration infrastructure is not easy to build. Moving large amounts of data from one place to another has historically required developers to build ad hoc integration points to move data between SaaS services, data lakes, and data warehouses. Today, there are dedicated systems and services for moving these large batches of data. Airbyte builds

Modern organizations eventually face data governance challenges.  Keeping track of where data came from, what systems update it, in what ways updates can be made are just some of the issues to be tackled.  Large organizations face additional challenges like training, onboarding, and capturing the institutional knowledge that leaves with the departure of key team

The JavaScript supply chain includes numerous vulnerabilities due to its expansive nature and the long dependency chains. Socket is a new security company that can protect your most critical apps from supply chain attacks. They are taking an entirely new approach to one of the hardest problems in security in a stagnant part of the

Loft is a platform for Kubernetes self-service and multi-tenancy. Loft allows you to control Kubernetes clusters with added multi-tenancy and self-service capabilities to get more value out of Kubernetes beyond simply cluster management. It allows for cost optimization, more efficient provisioning, and other features. Lukas Gentele joins the show to talk about Kubernetes multi-tenancy and

Ben Sigelman   Alex Kehlenbeck Observability consists of metrics, logs, and traces. Lightstep is a company that builds distributed tracing infrastructure, which requires them to store and serve high volumes of trace data. There are numerous architecture challenges that come with managing this data. Ben Sigelman and Alex Kehlenbeck join the show to discuss the implementation

The solution many turn to for capturing their streaming data is InfluxDB.  In this episode, I interview Brian Gilmore, Director of Product Management at InfluxData, about how real time applications achieve success built on top of InfluxDB. When most people hear the phrase Internet of Things, it typically evokes an image of connected devices we

As companies move to Spark and a Lakehouse architecture, they are realizing that the data tools are lagging way behind.  You need to be a programmer to effectively use Spark and Airflow. There are some low-code ETL tools, but is that enough?  Companies want to treat their data pipelines like mission-critical apps.  They want DevOps

Terminals are a gateway to building and running software, but they have not been reimagined since their initial creation. Warp is a new kind of terminal with visual aids, autocomplete, documentation, customization, and other features. It includes GPU acceleration, its own UI framework, and other engineering systems to increase speed and performance. Zach Lloyd joins

Lior Gavish James Densmore Data infrastructure is a fast-moving sector of the software market. As the volume of data has increased, so too has the quality of tooling to support data management and data engineering. In today’s show, we have a guest from a data intensive company as well as a company that builds a

Gabe Greenberg Michelle Bakels Software engineering can be a surprisingly grueling career. It is both physically and mentally demanding to sit in front of a screen for hours on end producing code. During the pandemic, the strains of being an engineer became even more acute, as we were secluded in our homes, in some cases
