Rotem Tamir, CTO, Ariga, joins us today to talk about Atlas, a database-schema-as-code tool that takes a declarative approach to managing database schemas. It enables developers to define the desired state of the schema, and Atlas then handles the planning, verification, and deployment of changes. This way, changes to the schema are automatically planned, verified, and deployed through a GitHub action. Atlas helps platform engineers standardize schema management across different development stacks and provides a control plane for monitoring and governance. Listen to know all about a modern approach to database schema management.
SLOs are metrics that specify measurable performance goals for a service. Brian Singer, Co-Founder/Chief Product Officer, Nobl9, joins us to talk about all things SLOs.

Listen in to see what an innovative Kubernetes management platform looks like.
The problem with traditional load testing is that it's often done in staging environments, or in production simulations. That yields inaccurate results, and springs surprises later. Artillery offers the ability to load test in actual production environments. They do this in a safe, scalable, and cloud-native way. Hassy Veldstra - Founder & CEO, Artillery, joins us to talk about the open source project and startup he's created around this very idea.
WireGuard is a popular open source VPN tunnel solution. It has done much to improve traditional VPNs. Netmaker builds on top of this foundation to bring state-of-the-art zero-trust capabilities to VPN. For any business that needs remote access to resources for its people, devices, and software, VPN is not outdated, but very much alive and well with the innovative approach Netmaker takes.
Jay Khatri, Co-founder, CEO at Highlight.io joins us to talk about monitoring in a cloud-native world. As infrastructure gets abstracted away, application code has become the "new" foundation for monitoring. Highlight.io delivers a cohesive view of your application monitoring data that's easy to setup, and powerful at scale.
Lee Caswell, SVP of Product & Solutions at Nutanix joins us to talk about the possibilities with multicloud, and how Nutanix enables it. He talks about how Nutanix enables organizations to manage all their cloud locations, on-prem & edge from a single pane of glass. Nutanix's move tool lets you move apps from one location to another without having to refactor or rearchitect them. Features like snapshots, micro-segmentation, and ransomware protection ensure you stay secure despite the increasingly complex infrastructure. Listen in as Lee shares from his wealth of experience in storage and virtualization.
Ramiro Berrelleza, Founder and CEO at Okteto, joins us to talk about what's new at their startup. Their focus is still on enabling deployment velocity. They do this in a variety of ways such as enabling completely remote deployments, reducing container build times with smart builds, giving developers real-time feedback on test results, and deep insights into developer productivity. Berrelleza also touches on their work related to creating sandbox environments for AI workloads, and how it can save valuable GPU resources. Tune in to catch it all in this fast-paced episode.
