open cloud infrastructure

open cloud infrastructure covers the cloud native industry space from the perspective of a newbie. Every two weeks, we take the mystery out of cloud-native and build the things that make up modern, secure infrastructure. In every episode, we take a concept or a part of production infrastructure and implement it using cloud native technology. From dedicated servers, virtual machines and containers to server-less, from cats to cattle. Join us and hear from the teams and individuals that create the systems and products that build secure cloud native businesses that grow and become more efficient.
