Episode 133: If only there was some way to automate software deploys, hopefully with yaml…?

There’s a lot of container and kubernetes news this week what with KubeCon. We discuss some highlights from there, including Google’s gVisor project, angling to make life more secure in cloud native land. We then discuss Red Hat’s Operators, Chef, and related ways to package up applications and related configuration for deployment onto cloud platforms. Plus, once again, we finally solve how to calendar better. This episode brought to you by: Datadog!

Blockchain is not a big deal The Best VPN Service You Are Not Google – Bradfield The Built to Adapt Benchmark Will Help Companies Set a New Course - #NotMyTech. Maybe blockchain is not such a big deal: ““In its annual survey of IT leaders, the analyst firm found that just 1 per cent are already using blockchain and only 8 per cent plan to experiment with it in the short term…. In contrast, a third of the 293 respondents said they had no interest in blockchain, and a further 43 per cent said they had no action planned but the tech was "on the radar" – hardly surprising given that it's thrown into just about every product announcement going.” Snap Inc. again shows why it should not have become a public company "Spiegel's performance on the conference call underscored the folly of giving an untested entrepreneur unassailable control over a company."
