S2E02 Kasper Nissen on GitOps, Developer Onboarding, and DevEx Freedom and Responsibility

Full transcript: https://www.getambassador.io/developer-control-planes/developer-control-planes-a-platform-architects-point-of-view/ Summary and extended notes: https://www.getambassador.io/developer-control-plane/dcp-insights-kasper-nissen-from-lunar/ The concept of "shifting left" at scale in a fully cloud-native organization may sound futuristic to those just entering the cloud-native space. For cloud-native leaders, who have run Kubernetes in production for years, shifting left is well underway. Lunar, a startup challenger bank in the Nordics, is one such organization. Kasper Nissen (@phennex), Lead Platform Architect from Lunar (@lunarbank), recently joined Ambassador's Director of DevRel, Daniel Bryant, to discuss Lunar's architecture, developer ownership of the life cycle, Lunar's approach to centralizing tooling, the build-versus-buy decision-making process, the developer control plane concept, and the challenges and benefits of being at the forefront of cloud-native fintech technology.

Om Podcasten

Software developers, platform engineers, and sysadmin/operators listen to the biweekly Ambassador podcasts in order to learn how to build cloud platforms and create an effective developer experience (DevEx) for deploying container-based applications to Kubernetes. We also discuss best practices for releasing functionality via continuous delivery pipelines, and we investigate the latest developer tooling, API gateway technology (e.g Envoy), and service mesh implementations. We interview practitioners and senior technical leaders from organizations such as HashiCorp, Lyft, TicketMaster, Headstart, and Buoyant.
