    S4Ep8 - Cloud Native and Kubernetes with Steve Wade and Michael Foster

    DSO Overflow S4EP8 Cloud Native and Kubernetes with Steve Wade and Michael Foster In this month's episode, Steve met with Steve Wade  and Michael Foster to talk about the  Cloud Native Club and new and future developments in Kubernetes. Steve Wade founded The Cloud Native Club, a global community for cloud-native enthusiasts. He is also a maintainer of the Flux Terraform Provider. As an experienced conference speaker, independent cloud-native consultant, and trainer, Steve shares his expertise worldwide. He has held platform leadership roles across various industries, including real estate, gaming, fintech, and the UK Parliament. With a BSc in Computer Science, Steve is passionate about cloud-native software development and distributed computing. Michael Foster regards himself as a passionate tech enthusiast and open-source advocate with a multidisciplinary background. Understands the importance of community and being a good communicator. Great problem solver, quick thinker, constant learner, and someone who is process-orientated. Able to conceptualize, coordinate, and implement by paying attention to detail while seeing the big picture. I am continually working to bridge the gap between tech and business. In this episode, Steve Wade introduces his new community called the Cloud Native Club while Steve Giguere and special guest host Michael Foster (Red Hat) introduces The State of Kubernetes Security report as an anchor to pick Steve Wade’s brain on everything from how we secure cloud native to AI’s influence on Kubernetes now and in the future. Cloud Native Club: The Cloud Native Club is a global community I founded in July 2024, dedicated to connecting cloud-native enthusiasts from all walks of life, no matter where they are in the world. Inspired by my journey transitioning from a football career to the tech industry, I quickly realised the immense value of community in fostering growth and success. However, I also saw that many people, especially those in remote areas, lacked access to the supportive networks that can be crucial for learning and development. The Cloud Native Club was created to bridge that gap. It’s a place where anyone—from beginners to seasoned professionals—can come together to learn, share, and grow in the cloud-native space. Through our forum, weekly hangouts, and YouTube series like "My Journey" and "Project Spotlight," we aim to make cutting-edge cloud-native knowledge accessible to everyone while fostering a strong, supportive, and inclusive community.
