    Exploring Data, Visualization, and Innovation - with Ryan Robitaille

    Episode Notes In this engaging episode of the JUXT Cast, Jeremy Taylor and Malcolm Sparks sit down with Ryan Robitaille, the founder of Rabbit, https://github.com/ryrobes/rvbbit. Ryan shares his unique journey—from working with Oracle systems as a young Solutions Engineer to becoming a creative force in the world of data visualization. Ryan explores his experience building Rabbit, a tool designed to bridge the gap between proprietary BI tools and custom-built engineering solutions. Frustrated by the limitations of traditional tools like Tableau, Ryan envisioned a platform that offers the "best of both worlds": the simplicity of drag-and-drop dashboards with the power and flexibility of live coding and version control. Key Takeaways from the Episode: The Origins of Rabbit: How Ryan’s passion for combining artistry and data engineering sparked the creation of a platform that feels like a "game engine for data." Balancing Build vs. Buy: Insights into the perpetual organizational dilemma of purchasing BI tools versus building in-house solutions. Clojure’s Role: How Clojure and its philosophy of "code is data" played a pivotal role in Rabbit's architecture and flexibility. The Tableau Experience: Ryan reflects on Tableau's transformative early days and where the tool has hit its limits. Empowering End-Users: Why Ryan believes tools should offer a low bar for entry but a high ceiling for complexity. With fascinating anecdotes and deep technical insights, this episode sheds light on how data platforms can evolve to empower creativity, transparency, and collaboration.

    Static vs Dynamic Typing: A Balanced Discussion on Modern Programming Practices - with Jake Howard

    Episode Notes In this episode, JUXT’s CEO Jon Pither, CTO Malcolm Sparks, and Head of Delivery Joe Littlejohn, are joined by guest Software Engineer Jake Howard to engage in a thoughtful discussion on the enduring static vs dynamic typing debate. While static typing has long been a staple in programming, the conversation leans toward the growing appeal of dynamic typing in modern software practices. The team explores how dynamic typing allows for quicker iteration, greater flexibility, and better adaptation to shifting project demands. They also take time to weigh the structure and reliability that static typing provides, making for a balanced look at both approaches.

    Missing insights and the SRE big picture — with Niall Murphy

    Episode Notes Our guest is Niall Murphy, CEO of Stanza - a company founded by a group of experienced SREs with a vision to provide the tools, coding platform, culture and community to give any organization industry-leading reliability. Niall previously worked at Google where he co-authored the book "Site Reliability Engineering: How Google Runs Production Systems" (2016). In this podcast episode, we discussed Niall's extensive experience including his role within an important era for Google's infrastructure transformation beginning in the late 2000s, and the wider contemporary challenges in the SRE landscape. Niall's reflections on operating distributed systems has lead him to the conclusion that there is still a profound missing gap in SRE tooling between discovering 'signals' and taking 'actions'. The conversation begins by alluding to a couple of other recent podcasts we've recorded on distributed systems in 2024, one with Mark Burgess and the other with András Gerlits. Happy listening!

    Promise Theory with Mark Burgess

    Episode Notes In this podcast episode, JUXT CTO Malcolm Sparks, JUXT Head of Delivery Joe Littlejohn, and XTDB Head of Product Jeremy Taylor spoke with guest Mark Burgess, an independent researcher and writer. Formerly a professor at Oslo University College in Norway and the creator of the CFEngine software and company, Mark was invited to write the foreward (https://sre.google/sre-book/foreword/) to Google's 2016 book: "Site Reliability Engineering - How Google runs production systems". They discuss Mark's journey to developing Promise Theory and explored techniques to 'scale simplicity' in the creation of large, reliable systems. One common (yet false) assumption is that all components of a system can be trusted to be 100% reliable. This misconception can lead to costly workarounds in production. They touch on the 'congruence' debate, considering whether and to what extent we should be concerned with the inherent inefficiencies in 'the automated building of things from scratch.' They also discuss the counter-intuitive observation that digital systems are far more complex and less resilient than analog systems, and how this may be due to the absence of an error-correcting mechanism in digital systems to maintain equilibrium. Please let us know if you have any points to add or if you were inspired by any part of the discussion. Happy listening!

    JUXT Cast: 50 Years of SQL, 15 Years of jOOQ — with Lukas Eder

    Episode Notes Our guest is Lukas Eder, creator of jOOQ (https://jooq.org/) - a fluent Java API for SQL building and execution. In this episode, JUXT Head of Product Jeremy Taylor and Lukas Eder discuss the often under-appreciated power and significance of SQL for developers, and how Lukas' jOOQ library helps Java developers sidestep the pitfalls of ORMs. Lukas has been developing jOOQ since 2009 and has diligently supported many thousands of companies with their use of relational databases since then. He has written huge amounts of documentation and blogged extensively to advocate for SQL. As mentioned during the introduction, the inspiration behind recording this episode was an excellent talk Lukas gave a few years ago titled "How Modern SQL Databases Come up with Algorithms that You Would Have Never Dreamed Of": https://www.youtube.com/embed/wTPGW1PNy_Y?si=hfxju9VPSfhlIb70.
