We had standardisation at the protocol level for the internet which let us build services on top, but now we're looking for the same at the app level. HTTP was meant for web pages, we never created anything for Apps and Services. What

You must invest heavily in development tooling. You must invest heavily in an architecture model that caters to local as a first class citizen. You must invest heavily in developer mindshare to actively and continually reinforce that local

It is a server which sits alongside your application. You can access it via http or grpc. They additionally provide multi-language sdks for it. Think database + sdks but for distributed systems.

Dapr's solving distributed systems development at scale. Basically as you grow your team from a handful of people to many separate teams all working on different products, the technical architecture also evolves from monolith to SOA an

Refreshing to see Ben and good luck with the new project. I'm a huge fan of boltdb and use it in micro. With a background in distributed systems also I share this frustration with the complexity of software and the direction cloud is t

The current status in open source licensing in relation to cloud providers such as AWS should signal why the choice was made to move to using Polyform Shield. Its drafted by Heather Meeker, a lawyer with vast experience in this space who ha

I think Dapr has the same goals as Micro. Dapr is from the team who built Azure Service Fabric, which is basically a microservices platform, and with this they've decided to take an open source angle for kubernetes. We're going th

Good question. Cloudflare and many other platforms like it are closed source and you're mostly locked in to a very custom development model, there's also no escape hatch. For what you get, it's great, I love cloudflare but I

Make no mistake. They're going to make an example of Ripple. This is going to be horrible for them and a warning to anyone trying to run a similar Ponzi scheme. You can't centralise, hype and then cash out on vaporware without the
