- bogomipz 5y agoThis looks like a good read, thanks. I'm curious what your background is. How does one go about getting into that specialty at an org like Google? I've understood that Borg and GKE containers at Google generally always run in a VM. Is this where your work is(platform) or are you more research oriented?
- vitno 5y agoGenerally "systems-y software" is my background. I joined Google for a semi-experimental operating system project and from there it was a small jump to virtualization when I decided I was interested in doing something else. I'm definitely on the platform side, but been doing some interesting stuff recently :)
