Episode 189: The 6 clouds you’ll meet in the MQ

July 26th, 2019  |  1 hr 3 mins

It’s cloud magic time! We go over the evolution of the IaaS Gartner Magic Quadrant, or whatever it’s called now. Plus, is it so hard to do do enterprise sales? (Yes.) And too much commentary on umlauts, ASCII, and Munich bike bells.

Episode 188: The transit private/public partnership, and, yeah, still, of course, kubernetes shit of the week

July 20th, 2019  |  1 hr 5 mins

There’s a couple kubernetes announcements this week: we mostly talk about Pivotal’s, and a tad on IBM. Plus, maybe scooters are actually good for cities and compiling source code for your infrastructure software is probably a bad idea.

Episode 185: Drink your own dog food

July 1st, 2019  |  1 hr 12 mins

With few exceptions (like NSX), infrastructure software has to be free and easy to check out and even use. All product management and strategy decisions flow from that. Usually. Except when they don’t. Also, developers don’t pay for anything, they trick ops into it. Maybe that’ll change in public cloud land, but who knows?

Episode 183: Miller Time is a state of mind

June 14th, 2019  |  1 hr 10 mins

Lowering your expectations on open source is a favorite topic of ours, so we return to it. Spoiler: people gotta make money somehow. Also, we explore inebriation in Amsterdam and other locales, Mary Meeker’s slide fest, public cloud outages vs. desktop computers, and better consumer identity management.

Episode 182: It’s chaos week in Enterprise Software!

June 7th, 2019  |  1 hr 4 mins

It’s chaos week in Enterprise Software! Cloudera misses their forecast, Oracle and Microsoft team up on cloud computing and more open source licensing discussion. Plus, we try to make sense of the metric system once and for all!

Episode 181: There wasn’t a sign that said I was in a drum circle zone

June 3rd, 2019  |  1 hr 18 mins

You can now pay open source developers directly, well, those in the closed beta. Seems like a good idea, really. Also, the Commonwealth and Friends club doesn’t like Huawei, and thought lords can be bores.

Episode 180: “I’m not sure Mudhoney plays a lot of corporate events”

May 24th, 2019  |  1 hr 7 mins

Matt goes to ChefConf, Microsoft launches a new Service Mesh and turns out SMS is pretty good for two-factor authentication. Plus, we brainstorm about a new type of conference and then we talk more about tacos, always tacos!

Episode 179: I don’t know if it has a pickle plugin

May 16th, 2019  |  1 hr 17 mins

Salesforce synergizing at IBM and Red Hat, VMware buys Bitnami, and Linux Desktop market share analysis. Plus, pickles.

Episode 178: What is this: a fucking <marquee/> tag?

May 9th, 2019  |  1 hr 19 mins

Putting together the M&A case for Docker, Inc., Microsoft Build, Google I/O, and Oracle’s cloud grudge. Also, dead pets and kids: no good answers.

Episode 177: "It’s going to be just as fast as Google Fiber”

May 3rd, 2019  |  1 hr 42 secs

Microsoft and VMware made peace, Java goes native, Apache goes to Github and Red Hat gets a new logo. Plus, Matt Ray explains why the Internet in Australia is slow.

With Matt Ray out sick, Coté and Brandon discuss what the Pentagon’s JEDI contract means for cloud vendors, PagerDuty going public and what exactly do developers need to know about Kubernetes. Plus, Coté offers parenting advice on how to handle the no “free drink refills” policy in Europe.

Episode 174: The multi-hybrid kubernetes cloud control plan, just in time for MOM!

April 11th, 2019  |  1 hr 10 mins

With Matt gone, Coté & Brandon speculate wildly about Google’s multi-cloud management announcement, Anthos. They should have just read the docs, but who has time for that?

Episode 173: Tacos tomorrow, voice & AI are garbage

April 5th, 2019  |  1 hr 4 mins

IBM Watson didn’t work so well in health care, maybe it was too early. Also, Chef goes full open source, with Apache 2. Meanwhile, Coté has to pay taxes in two countries.
