    Java and Building AI Applications with Kevin Dubois

    Today on the show, we have Kevin Dubois. Kevin is a Senior Principal Developer Advocate at Red Hat, Java Champion, and well known open source contributor. In our conversation with Kevin, we talk about his history with Java and the evolution of the language and where it now fits within the world of AI. Kevin's been building AI applications with Java using Quarkus andLangChain4j. Kevin's a java expert. He's not an AI expert. It's amazing to see how much he's building with AI even without having that background. We also talk a lot about the mindset shift you need to successfully build with generative AI models.

    SQLite, Turso, and the State of Databases with Glauber Costa

    Today we have Glauber Costa on the show, who's the CEO and founder at Turso. They provide a managed SQLite service with some really interesting capabilities that's changing some of the application patterns you can do. He shares a lot of really good technical stuff on Twitter. He worked in the kernel, he worked on high-performance databases at ScyllaDB, and now he's working on Turso. He also has a great and interesting podcast, the Save File, which is about developers and religion. Glauber had some great thoughts on the future of databases, including what the future of NoSQL is like and whether we'll see vector databases as a separate category or as a feature of general-purpose databases. We’ve seen arguments both ways, but he was the most effective at changing our mind.

    Blocking Bots & Moving from Redis to SQLite with Mike Buckbee

    Today, we have Mike Buckbee on the show. Mike is the co-founder of Wafris, and he wrote a really insightful article last week about moving from Redis to SQLite for an aspect of their architecture. The article was nuanced in describing why it worked for their specific needs, and it has some surprising takeaways, including that SQLite was 3x faster than a local Redis instance for their workload. Mike has built a few different WAF (Web Application Firewall) products, so we covered that area as well. He's seen a lot here, so we walked through all the nefarious traffic patterns and the speed in which these bots adapt to new vulnerabilities. Finally, Mike has a wide-ranging skillset that includes marketing. Developers are notoriously tricky to market to, so we talked about his experience in effective marketing to developers without being disingenuous.

    AI Engineer, Web Frameworks, & more with Tejas Kumar

    Today we have Tejas Kumar on the show. Tejas is part of the Developer Relations team at Datastax. He's really good at frontend, got a great podcast and he has written a book called Fluent React. He spoke recently at the Shift Conference in Croatia, where he talked about AI engineering and what that means. So we talked about AI Engineering, we talked about React, content creation, education, and much more. This episode is full of value and we think you'd love this one.

    The Data Engineering Landscape with Peter Hanssens

    Today on the show, we have Peter Hanssens, the CEO and founder of Cloud Shuttle and creator of the DataEngBytes Conference. Peter has helped build an incredible data engineering community in Australia. He runs meetups, user groups, luncheons, and entire conferences. And he's also super knowledgeable. He's been working in the data space for a long time. We picked his brain about the history of data tooling, trends he's seeing in the industry and the relationship between data engineers and other types of engineering. Even if you aren't in the data world, we think you will enjoy the conversation.

    Infrastructure, AWS, AI and Jobs, HTMX & more

    Today we have a special guest. We have Jeremy Daly, who’s been in the cloud space for a while. Jeremy is the co-founder of Ampt, which is building an abstraction infrastructure layer on top of AWS, just to make it simpler to sift through all the different options and develop on AWS and do best practices there. So we wanted to get his opinions on a lot of different infrastructure stuff that he's seeing and how AI is changing development. We even talk about some front end stuff at the end and HTMX and whether it's real, whether it's a troll. So lots of good stuff in this episode.

    Introduction to GraphRAG with Stephen Chin

    Today we have Stephen Chin, VP of developer relations at Neo4j on the show. Stephen is an author, speaker, and Java expert, we’ll actually be crossing paths in person at the upcoming Infobip Shift conference in September. We got together to talk about GraphRAG. His CTO recently wrote an article titled The GraphRAG Manifesto, and Stephen joined us to explain how a knowledge graph can be used to improve performance over traditional RAG architectures. It also helps address some of the fundamental limitations to LLM adoption from enterprises today, like hallucinations and explainability. GraphRAG is relatively new, but looks like a very promising approach to improving performance for certain generative AI use cases, like customer support.
