#Wasm - Originally created as a secure sandbox to run compiled C/C++ code in web browsers, WebAssembly (Wasm) has been gaining traction and momentum on the server-side. In the cloud, Wasm provides a lightweight, fast, secure, language-agnostic, and cross-platform application runtime for diverse user-submit workloads. It is quickly becoming a key part of the cloud-native technology stack. As Wasm is adopted across cloud-native projects, products, and services, the CNCF worked together with the Wasm community to create a Wasm landscape to help better understand the scope of the Wasm ecosystem. As the original Cloud Native Landscape helped chart the massive ecosystem around cloud native technologies, the CNCF believe the same is needed for Wasm as the ecosystem evolves and grows. The initial Wasm landscape, published in time for the WasmCon conference, includes 11 categories and 120 projects or products, representing $59.4B in total economic value. The Wasm landscape is divided into two large areas: Dev (application development) and Ops (application deployment).

Introducing Milvus Lite: An interesting approach to have a very simple lightweight implementation of a service that allows for super fast local development, and then allow to make an easy switch to the heavier implementation, like a distributed service or a cloud offering. This allows for fastest possible development iterations, while keeping switching cost to a production service low. I'm always surprised why this is not a more often implemented solution, especially for companies that plan on cloud business.

⚡️ We just released Terramate v0.4.4 🎉🚀 Here's an overview of what has changed: 🛠️ A brand new feature is Terramate Scripts, which allows you to define a sequence of commands to be executed in stacks. 📈 Terramate now supports better code generation using stack filters that rapidly improve the performance when generating code in a subset of stacks. 🤝 Completely reworked documentation, which is now feature-complete, including new getting-started guides and proper documentation of all commands available in the CLI. For a comprehensive overview of all changes, please see our latest blog post at 👉 https://lnkd.in/g_U3AdXb #terraform #opentofu #cloud #devops

Great update from Day 1 of #googleCloudNext: “With Duet AI, developers can use natural language to quickly understand complex code and APIs, follow best coding practices, quickly generate unit tests, and more. Duet AI’s code and chat assistance are available in our development environments such as the Google Cloud console, Cloud Workstations and Cloud Shell Editor. In addition, through our Cloud Code IDE extensions, you can also find Duet AI in third-party IDEs such as VSCode and JetBrains IDEs like CLion, GoLand, IntelliJ, PyCharm, Rider and WebStorm.” https://lnkd.in/eXT8MQdx #googleCloud #googleCloudNext #duetAI

I've been away in Europe, and most importantly, away from my computer. That is ending soon and I'm starting to think about what is next in my career as Solutions Architect. I've been wanting to do a blog/podcast for awhile, and have been contemplating the content I could provide. I have several SaaS services, all of which are at the startup stage. Each one is different, but each leverage my own personal thoughts on a dynamic scale applications leveraging cloud resources. As silly as it sounds to me, I'm thinking why not simply discuss the Solution Architecture I used for each of these solutions? (Note: Application architecture is very different from Solution architecture) i have also seen and experienced several failed attempts at the cloud, and I could discuss them as well. I also know a few folks that know and understand how cloud applications is very different from client/server applications. This includes my interview on @dotnetrocks show https://lnkd.in/guKjKZ_f So that is what I'm going to do, simply record my thoughts on how businesses can best use cloud resources in my opinion and my opinion alone. I'm thinking a recording on a bi-weekly basis to start. #digitaltransformation

Is anyone still overwhelmed by the Cloud Native Landscape and the 1200+ cards presented there? Well, get ready for another leap: CNCF has launched the Wasm landscape! While this addition is ten times smaller than the original landscape at the moment, it’s exciting to see what we already have today, right? The WebAssembly landscape comprises two big categories: application development and application deployment. *** 𝘼𝙥𝙥𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙡𝙤𝙮𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 lists: * 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀, including compiled, managed, scripting ones, and even optimised explicitly for Wasm. Have you heard of WasmEdge QuickJS (https://lnkd.in/gmECeJFh), Moonbit (http://moonbitlang.com/) and Grain (http://grain-lang.org/)? * 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 — the cornerstone of the ecosystem. They execute the Wasm bytecode and provide essential features like sandbox safety, security, speed, and cross-platform portability. Ten of them are presented, including two hosted by the CNCF itself: WasmEdge (https://lnkd.in/gzRNW2zT) and wasmCloud (https://wasmcloud.com/). * 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 that extend runtime capabilities with HTTP(S) networking, database access, etc. * 𝗘𝗱𝗴𝗲 & 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗹-focused projects. * 𝗔𝗜/𝗠𝗟 inference backends, pre- and post-processors. * A special 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 section which refers to projects using Wasm internally. Did you know that traffic proxies such as Envoy and Istio use Wasm to execute custom logic in the data plane? * Finally, there is the 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 section. It lists ten tools that assist in compiling various code to Wasm and build apps. Emscripten (https://emscripten.org/), which compiles C and C++ to WebAssembly using LLVM and Binaryen, is probably the most well-known project here. The 𝘼𝙥𝙥𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙡𝙤𝙮𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 category highlights orchestration & management projects that help you to build Kubernetes clusters running Linux containers and Wasm containers side by side. You can use specific 𝗢𝗖𝗜 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀, such as crun (https://lnkd.in/gFRQEPfj) and youki (https://lnkd.in/gd5uuaEM), together with WasmEdge to achieve that. Relying on runwasi (https://lnkd.in/g_RwhNE5) as your 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗱-𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗺 is another option. Other deployment-related items include hosted platforms, decentralized platforms, debugging and observability tools, and artifact repositories. *** To sum it up, the Wasm ecosystem is thriving based on what we can see in the CNCF Wasm landscape today.
