About jbeda

Principal Engineer at VMware via acquisition of Heptio.

I previously worked for Google in Seattle. I started Google Compute Engine and helped start Kubernetes/Google Container Engine. At Google I've worked on Google Talk, VoIP, and ad suggestion systems. Before that I worked at Microsoft on IE and WPF/Avalon.

I'm a dad of two and my wife is a doc.

    I hesitate to start listing names as I'm sure that I'd accidentally leave someone out. Suffice to say that so many folks had an amazing impact and I'm grateful to all of them for b…

    FWIW — we never viewed Kubernetes as a PaaS. We were informed by both Borg and GAE (and Heroku and PCF). The pattern that you see often with PaaS is that they work great until they…

    Heh - yeah. Henning does all the hard work of curating these. But I had the domain sitting around and figured that it was a good use of it. Sharing and learning through stories lik…

    I wrote a design doc/PRD for k8s that outlined the basic API, distributed structure and why/how it related to open source and the marketplace. I lost it when I left google. It was …

    If y'all want more discussion on this, I tweeted about Paketo and why I find it interesting: https://twitter.com/jbeda/status/1252974134532780034

    This is a great rundown. I started my career at Microsoft working with and on Win32/COM and saw this play out first hand. One thing not mentioned here is the history of the "Byte O…

    This doesn't come across in the press that is being made. Perhaps it is just the join messaging with Docker. The purpose of CNAB isn't clear as a generic spec as the examples are a…

    It's something we've talked about on and off. Never seems to make it happen.

    A Pod manages a set of containers on a node. A ReplicaSet (RCs are old and deprecated) manages a set of Pods. It has a template and a target replica count. A Deployment manages Rep…

    I came up with the naming scheme here. We picked n for Intel as I could be confused with i3/i5/i7. Early work was done in AMD and we had an a1 series pre launch. IIRC, g is for Goo…
