DevOps Paradox Darin Pope & Viktor Farcic

#262: In the ever-evolving world of software development and IT infrastructure, striking the right balance between ambition and realistic expectations is a common challenge. This balance becomes even more precarious when dealing with the development and implementation of projects, be it in a Greenfield scenario or maintaining and upgrading existing systems.
In this episode, Darin and Viktor review a blog post from Ricardo Castro titled "Engineering Success: Prioritize Progress Over Grand Overhauls".

#261: The future of developer portals is one of seamless integration and intuitive operation. By bridging the gap between complex platforms and the developers who use them, portals can significantly enhance productivity and innovation.
This vision aligns with the ethos of companies like Port, which emphasizes an open and adaptable approach to developing internal developer portals.
In this episode, we speak with Zohar Einy, the CEO at Port, about the rapidly evolving landscape of software development and operations and the distinction between developer portals and platforms.

#259: Terminals have been around for decades, serving as the backbone of many workflows and operations in the tech world. From managing servers to local file manipulation, terminals offer a direct line to the heart of computing. However, with the advent of graphical user interfaces (GUIs), the terminal's prominence has waned among the general user base, though it remains a powerhouse for those who know how to wield it.
Wave Terminal has emerged as a beacon of innovation in the static terminal landscape, bringing with it a host of features that leverage today's technology without abandoning the terminal's foundational principles. This modern terminal solution integrates technology, specifically Electron and Go, to create a user interface that feels familiar yet vastly more powerful.
In this episode, Darin and Viktor discuss these topics in depth with Mike Sawka, the founder of Wave Terminal, shedding light on the innovative features and the vision for Wave Terminal's future.

#257: As the digital world continues to evolve, businesses and technology leaders find themselves at a critical inflection point, particularly when it comes to the deployment and management of infrastructure. The journey from traditional IT to cloud-native platforms has been significant, pushing the boundaries of innovation and efficiency. Yet, the continuous evolution raises a fundamental question: What lies ahead for Kubernetes, cloud-native platforms, and the burgeoning field of edge computing?
In this episode we speak with Joseph Sandoval about how Adobe's journey, from pioneering with its own Kubernetes distribution to embracing cloud providers' managed services and exploring edge computing, mirrors the broader industry's trajectory. Adobe's approach, focusing on developer experience and scalability, showcases the practical applications and considerations at the intersection of Kubernetes and edge computing.
