  1. End-of-Year Observability Retrospective with Charity Majors - OpenObservability Talks S5E07

    4 DAYS AGO

    End-of-Year Observability Retrospective with Charity Majors - OpenObservability Talks S5E07

    In this special year-end episode of OpenObservability Talks, we are thrilled to host Charity Majors, co-founder and CTO of Honeycomb, for an insightful conversation on the state of observability. Charity and our host Horovits recently delivered keynotes at Open Source Observability Day, which sparked fascinating discussions on the evolution of open observability and its impact on the broader industry. Together, they run a 2024 yearly postmortem on the key insights and trends, exploring what the observability community and industry have accomplished this year. Looking ahead, they also discuss what’s on the horizon for observability in 2025 and beyond. Charity Majors pioneered the concept of modern Observability, drawing on her years of experience building and managing massive distributed systems at Parse (acquired by Facebook), Facebook, and Linden Lab building Second Life. She is the co-author of Observability Engineering and Database Reliability Engineering (O'Reilly).  Join us for this fireside chat as we wrap up the year with the influential voices in observability.

    WebAssembly: The Next Frontier in Cloud-Native Evolution - OpenObservability Talks S5E02

    Time to explore the next frontier in cloud-native evolution: WebAssembly (WASM). Moving beyond containers and Kubernetes, WASM bears the promise to revolutionize the cloud landscape with unparalleled performance, portability, and security. Can it actually deliver on this promise? We discussed this and more it in this episode. We delved into how WASM is transforming the way we build and run cloud-native applications, enabling a more efficient, scalable, and flexible infrastructure. We also got latest insights from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s work in the domain, the wasmCloud open source project and the tool landscape, along with the work of the WASM working group and standardization efforts with the Bytecode Alliance. This episode’s guest is Taylor Thomas, Engineering Director working on WebAssembly platforms at Cosmonic. He serves as a co-chair for the CNCF’s WASM working group, and as a CNCF Ambassador. He actively participates in the open source community and is one of the creators of Krustlet and Bindle.

  7. Redis is No Longer Open Source. Is Valkey the Successor? - OpenObservability Talks S5E01

    27 JUN

    Redis is No Longer Open Source. Is Valkey the Successor? - OpenObservability Talks S5E01

    Redis is no longer open source. Just a few months ago, in March 2024, the project was relicensed, leaving its vast community confused. But the community did not give up, and started work to fork Redis to keep it open.  In this episode, we delve into the Valkey project, a prominent fork of Redis, established under the Linux Foundation, which brought together important figures from the Redis community, as well as leading industry giants including AWS, Google Cloud, Oracle and others. Valkey has rapidly gained momentum and just reached General Availability (GA).  Join us as we explore the motivations behind Valkey's creation, hear first-hand stories on its foundation and journey to GA, and learn of its Redis compatibility, roadmap and implications for the open-source community.  Valkey's first Contributor Summit is taking place June 5-6 in Seattle and we will bring you announcements and updates hot off the summit. Our guest is Kyle Davis, the Senior Developer Advocate on the Valkey project, and a past contributor for Redis.  Kyle currently works at AWS, a founding member of Valkey, and has a long history with open source and with forks. He was a founding contributor to the OpenSearch project, which started as a fork of Elasticsearch and Kibana after the latter's relicensing off OSS. Most recently Kyle worked to build a community around Bottlerocket OSS project.   The episode was live-streamed on 10 June 2024 and the video is available at youtube.com/live/HQ7TAdQpxu4 OpenObservability Talks episodes are released monthly, on the last Thursday of each month and are available for listening on your favorite podcast app and on YouTube.

    30 MAY

    FOSS in Flux: Redis Relicensing and the Future of Open Source: OpenObservability Talks S4E12

    In the past few years we’ve been witnessing tectonic shifts in the open source realm, with established projects taken off open source or otherwise turning to the dark side. On the other hand, we’ve seen active forks aiming to keep these projects open gaining momentum. What does it mean for the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) movement? Is this a trend or just a passing wave? What can we learn from it as vendors and as a community? In this special episode concluding the fourth season of OpenObservability talks we will look back at the past year, including the very recent relicensing of Redis, and will discuss the state of open source with the help of open source pundit David Nalley. David has been involved in open source for nearly two decades.
