Applications-as-Code with Shipa
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
06/17/22 • 57 min
Bret is joined by Ravi Lachhman, Field CTO at Shipa, to discuss the basics of Shipa application and policy management, and show off the developer experience that Shipa brings to apps running on IaC and GitOps tools like ArgoCD, Crossplane, Terraform, Kubernetes, and more.
Shipa is focused on the layer above the infrastructure where application developers can avoid other Kubernetes manifest tools like Helm or Kustomize, and create a cleaner contract between what their application needs are and how the infrastructure provides them.
If you've done Kubernetes YAML long enough, you know that it can get quite complex and verbose, and it requires both infrastructure and developer roles or knowledge to fully configure it. So you kind of got to know both worlds. But Shipa wants to fit in the middle somewhere, not replacing the infrastructure tools like Terraform or Crossplane, but rather working on top of them, providing an easier way to describe your apps from a dev's point of view and how they work on top of your infrastructure. It focuses on the application requirements, not necessarily how those requirements are implemented. Streamed live on YouTube on April 14, 2022.
Unedited live recording of this show on YouTube (Ep #166). Includes demos.

Arm, Apple M1, and Docker in 2021
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
11/19/21 • 54 min
Apple's move to Arm processors will change software development for everyone... or will it?
Apple has moved towards an Arm processor. They don't call it Arm, they call it Apple Silicon, or M1 but underneath that, the architecture of the CPU is Arm 64-bit compatible. Streamed live on YouTube Jan 7, 2021, Ep 106.
- Unedited live recording on YouTube Ep 106
★Corrections ★
- "Windows RT" isn't a thing anymore, and the Windows 10 on Arm (WoA) is getting better, with x64 emulation (MS version of Rosetta 2) in pre-beta
- AArch64 or ARM64 is the 64-bit extension of the ARM architecture
- Microsoft is indeed designing its own Arm chips for future Surface and servers
- Windows 10 Arm works in Parallels M1 beta on macOS
- AWS Arm instances are now on Gen 2, as of May 2020, with up to 40% better performance-per-dollar than old Gen 1 Arm, AMD, and Intel

DevOps Cert Prep using AI, with the KodeKloud Team
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
12/13/24 • 73 min
Bret is joined by Mumshad Mannambeth and Vijin Palazhi of KodeKloud for Q&A on what we should be studying and certifying for in 2025.
💥 This episode is brought to you by our valued sponsor and friends at Aikido!💥
Aikido is a no-nonse platform that helps developers get security done. It consolidates multiple scanning tools like code analysis, dependency analysis, and cloud security into a single platform. Aikido’s superpower is its ability to remove false positives, so you can focus on the real issues. Aikido not only helps you find true vulnerabilities but their new AI features auto triage and even fix issues for you.
Aikido is FREE for small teams or anyone wanting to simply explore so check it out today at aikido.dev
This episode is chalked full of information. We talked about the CNCA Kubestronaut program and how GenAI has changed the cert prep game, and see what tools and techniques we should use to prepare for next year!
You've probably seen Mumshad's courses. He has been another person like myself who, for almost a decade, has been making container courses on Docker, Kubernetes, all the tooling. Now he's running a giant platform of learning and they're introducing AI into your learning and certification prep, courses, and skills labs. And we go through all of it.
We talk about all of the Linux Foundation certifications they cover. They've launched over 100 courses now on their platform and they cover a lot, if not all of the Linux certifications, especially around Kubernetes and the Cloud Native ecosystem. I'm a huge fan of that. I think this is great stuff for everyone, especially if you're early in your career and you're using certifications as a way to prove your expertise or you're like me, you've been around forever and you want to show that you're up to date.
There's also a video version of this show on YouTube.

Postgres in Containers
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
03/08/24 • 46 min
Bret and Nirmal are joined by Lukas Fittl of pganalyze to dive into Postgres in containers, in production, and in CI.
Lukas is an expert and founder of pganalyze, and I invited him on the show to explain a lot of this to us and catch us up with what's going on in the Postgres community, particularly when it comes to containers and production.
We dive into everything around containers with Postgres, some of the new stuff going on in Postgres Land, including tuning and stuff I didn't even know about Postgres, including storing NoSQL data, vector databases for AI and more.
Be sure to check out the live recording of the complete show from February 15, 2024 on YouTube (Ep. #254).

Best of DevOps 2023
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
02/23/24 • 52 min
Bret and Nirmal are joined by Melissa McKay, Developer Advocate at JFrog and Docker Captain, to discuss the best and worst of 2023.
We recorded this episode in December of 2023 where we talked through our favorite tools. Whether a DevOps oriented tool or not, it just might be the things we like to use on containers and in Cloud Native DevOps. This is a fun episode of three friends talking about what they love. And I sometimes I think these are the best shows because we didn't plan them out. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did recording it.

Faster Dev Feedback and Previews with Livecycle
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
02/09/24 • 37 min
Bret is joined by Matan Mishan & Roy Razon of Livecycle to discuss developer platforms and how to improve developer collaboration and speeding up feedback and previews.
We talk about the various delays encountered in pull requests due to feedback processes, and how Lifecycle's tools aim to shorten this feedback loop in Docker Desktop, local CLI with Preevy, and automated CI workflows. I like how Lifecycle provides multiple locations and ways to get access to people in the preview environments that really lets you just fit the different parts of the tool into your workflow, as opposed to one way to do everything. It's great for getting feedback quickly during the PR process, rather than making people set up their own environments to test their changes. I also liked their ideas around how the feedback loops can be improved.
This episode contains great demos so be sure to also check out the live recording of the complete show from December 21, 2023 on YouTube (Ep. #246).

Docker Recap of 2023
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
01/26/24 • 55 min
Bret and Nirmal are joined by Michael Irwin, DevRel at Docker, to talk about all the products and features Docker shipped in 2023, and what's coming in early 2024.
Michael has been on this show many times as a Docker Captain and now as a Docker employee, and it's always great to dig into the details of the products with someone who's been using them for so many years as an end-user and now staff at Docker.
Docker did some big things in 2023, but they also shipped some smaller features that we will help you catch up on in this episode.

Tailscale Everything
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
01/05/24 • 55 min
Bret is joined by Alex Kretzschmar to talk about Tailscale, a universal VPN that connects teams, devices, and development environments for easy access to remote resources.
Alex and I talk about projects he's worked on in containers over the years and then we quickly get into Tailscale and talking about why he joined the team there.
Tailscale is one of those tools that's hard to put down. I've used it for years to connect my personal devices to my home server lab when I'm traveling or servers I might have on the internet that I run temporarily. It connects them all together in a seamless VPN. The product itself comes up a lot in our Discord server when people are talking about needing some secure remote access to something anywhere in the world.
Tailscale keeps adding more and more features, I can't really keep up, so we had Alex on the show to talk about all the new stuff, including a client for Apple TV, which at first, I didn't quite understand why, but now it totally makes sense; and a Kubernetes operator that does some slick things around connecting engineers on their local machines to clusters. I found Alex at the Tailscale booth at KubeCon this year and invited him on the show to talk about this relatively new yet ubiquitous-feeling product.

Dockerfiles have versions?
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
12/29/23 • 16 min
I break down why Dockerfile frontends exist and how Docker's build engine "BuildKit" is giving us updated Dockerfile features.
The TL;DR of this podcast is to add this to your Dockerfiles as the first line, always and forever.
# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1It'll ensure your Dockerfile will have access to the latest v1.x features of the "Dockerfile frontend" feature of BuildKit.

Dagger: CI of the Future?
DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
12/15/23 • 57 min
Application delivery doesn’t have to suck. Bret and Nirmal are joined by Solomon Hykes, the founder or Docker, to talk about Dagger and their application delivery-as-code that runs anywhere.
💥 This episode is brought to you by our valued sponsor and friends at CAST AI! 💥
CAST AI is an all-in-one Kubernetes cost optimization and automation platform that achieves over 60% average compute cost savings without months of onboarding. You get lightning fast autoscaling, downscaling, spot VM support and more with no hit to performance.
Use the link below and optimize your first cluster for FREE.
Solomon started Dagger after he left Docker in 2018 with a few other Docker VPs, including Sam Alba and Andrea Lusardi.
Dagger is an innovative startup aimed at simplifying and revolutionizing DevOps automation and software delivery. Created to address Docker's unattended gaps, Dagger streamlines software building, testing, and deployment, exhibiting immense growth potential and wide applications in fostering software ecosystems.
For a few years now, they've been publicly iterating on the idea of a programmable and portable automation system for software building, testing, and deploying.
In this episode, they cover many topics around Docker and Dagger. I've been convinced that I need to start trying out Dagger in my projects.
