RCN #25 - Big News from the CNCF & Rust on Linux

Radio Cloud Native with Eric Gregory & John Jainschigg

Get the week's news on Kubernetes, the cloud native landscape, and the wider world of tech. Co-hosts Eric Gregory and Nick Chase break through the jargon and help you make sense of it all.
Nick is back for this episode to explore some big milestones for WebAssembly and Ethereum, as well as a host of science fiction tropes that have begun to spill over into the real world, including therapeutic applications of metaverse technology, AI art, and even interplanetary internet. That and so much more in this week's jam-packed episode.
A full list of topics for this week include:

• Wasmtime, a WebAssembly Runtime, has reached 1.0
• Ethereum transitions to proof of stake
• New incubating project at the CNCF: Cloud Custodian
• Rust on Linux progress
• The metaverse & brain health
• Backblaze data on SSD & HHD reliability
• AI Art
• (Solar) System-wide scaling
• Whack-a-Doodle
• Outro

As mentioned by Eric, this (RCN #49) will be the final episode of Radio Cloud Native (in it's current format).
Please keep the podcast in your feed and keep an eye out for fresh content. Sometime early in this new year, the team at Mirantis is planning to revamp Radio Cloud Native (possibly under a new name, but accessible from this same RSS feed).
Thank you to all of our listeners that kept Radio Cloud Native going over the past two-or-so years. And a special thanks as well as good luck to long-time host Eric Gregory as he pursues future endeavors outside of Mirantis. Stay tuned for more podcasts from Mirantis in 2024!
