Steve Klabnik discusses the rise of WebAssembly on the server and how it intersects with Rust and serverless architectures.

A lot of things have been said about WebAssembly inside of the browser; after all, that's why it was originally created. But a new case is emerging as well, and that's WebAssembly on the server. More specifically, we're seeing a rise of support for WebAssembly in serverless application platforms, combining two brand-new technologies together. We're also seeing a lot of growth of the Rust programming language, and its close alignment with WebAssembly. In this talk, Steve will talk about Rust, WebAssembly, serverless technologies, and how it all fits together. A talk from Full Stack Fest 2019. Full Stack Fest is a conference held by Codegram. We've been running development conferences since 2012 with a goal in mind: Inspiring our audience by putting together the best speakers & talks at a privileged location in the beautiful Barcelona area.

On “Learning Containers From The Bottom Up - Ivan Velichko”

I'm not making a value judgement. Personally, I think containers are a band-aid on an underlying issue (see this short anecdote on a great Steve Klabnic talk: [video Treating containers like binaries, just because we overuse interpreted languages that require a whole environment, is something I personally would deem an antipattern.

I don't have a number, but it might as well not be there kind of size. link to this video
