Untangling Cloud Infrastructure with Cory o’Daniel - EMx 168

In this episode the panel chats with Cory o’Daniel which is one of the founders of massdriver.cloud where they try to give teams the tools to deploy production-ready, best-practice, and secure cloud infrastructure. The panel talks about the the various options for running software in the cloud - from SAAS providers, like Heroku, to full-fledged cloud providers like AWS - and the tradeoffs these options introduce for the average developer. They go over Cory’s history and how he experienced the pains of some of these trade-offs himself which prompted him to create Massdriver. They also explore which parts of Massdriver are powered by Elixir, and which not. Sponsors
