Podcast: #121 SBOM or Be Doomed: Surviving the Next Supply-Chain Meltdown

#121 SBOM or Be Doomed: Surviving the Next Supply-Chain Meltdown

In this episode of The Dutch Kubernetes Podcast, Ronald and Jan sit down with Soroosh Khodami to explore one of the most urgent questions in modern software engineering: are we truly ready for the next Log4Shell-level cyber crisis? Soroosh, a hands-on solution architect currently supporting security platform services at Rabobank, takes us deep into the evolving threat landscape. From classic vulnerabilities like SQL injection to modern supply-chain attacks and the infamous XZ backdoor, he exp...
Podcast: #120 Let Them Cook —  Inside the Kubernetes Recipes Cookbook

#120 Let Them Cook — Inside the Kubernetes Recipes Cookbook

In this episode, we sit down with Luca Berton and Grzegorz (Greg) Stencel, authors of the brand-new book Kubernetes Recipes — a 400+ page cookbook packed with real, practical solutions for everyday Kubernetes challenges. Luca and Greg explain how the idea for the book started: most Kubernetes books do a great job explaining theory, but very few show how to solve the messy, real-world issues engineers actually face. So instead of writing “yet another reference manual,” they chose the coo...
Podcast: #118 Why Ceph Still Rules Cloud-Native Storage

#118 Why Ceph Still Rules Cloud-Native Storage

In this episode of De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, we talk with Travis Nielsen, one of the original creators of the Rook project, about the evolution of cloud-native storage and how Rook and Ceph make reliable, distributed storage accessible to Kubernetes users. Travis shares the story of how Rook started back in 2016 when Kubernetes was still young and how it became the bridge that made Ceph, a powerful but complex storage system, usable in the cloud-native era. We discuss: What Ceph actu...
Podcast: #117 How Policy as Code Is Changing Kubernetes Forever

#117 How Policy as Code Is Changing Kubernetes Forever

In this episode of De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, we talk with Jim Bugwadia, founder and CEO of Nirmata, and Shuting Zhao, Staff Engineer and one of the maintainers of Kyverno — the CNCF project for Kubernetes policy management. Jim and Shuting share how Kyverno was born from Nirmata’s commercial work and has since become one of the most widely adopted open source projects in Kubernetes governance, with over 3.4 billion image pulls. We explore the real question: Why does Kubernetes need p...
Podcast: #116 Running AI on Kubernetes: From GPUs to CRO

#116 Running AI on Kubernetes: From GPUs to CRO

In this episode of De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, we talk with Carlos Santana, Principal Partner Solution Architect at AWS and long-time contributor to the Kubernetes and AI communities. Carlos joins us to explore what it really takes to run AI workloads on Kubernetes, from GPU scheduling to scaling inference and training efficiently across clusters. We discuss how AI and machine learning are transforming the cloud-native ecosystem — and why orchestration is becoming just as important as ...
Podcast: #115 Extending Kubernetes: CRDs, Inheritance & Modularity

#115 Extending Kubernetes: CRDs, Inheritance & Modularity

In this episode of De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, we talk with Mustafa Hadadian, PhD researcher at the University of Groningen and founder of startup CAIDEL. Mustafa shares his journey from video game development to big data and Kubernetes innovation, and how his latest work explores a powerful concept: bringing inheritance into Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs). We dive into his poster presentation at KubeCon, titled “Extensible Kubernetes CRDs via Inheritance for Modularity...
Podcast: #114 Do We Even Need Logs Anymore? And What is vCluster?

#114 Do We Even Need Logs Anymore? And What is vCluster?

In this episode, we sit down with Nicolas Fränkel, Developer Advocate at Loft Labs, to talk about two things every Cloud Native engineer should know in 2025: 🪵 OpenTelemetry Tracing and 🌀 vCluster. Nicolas helps us unpack why tracing is often the missing pillar of observability — and whether it might one day make traditional logs obsolete. We dive into: How traces, spans and sampling actually work under the hood.Why post-sampling may save your storage bill.What happens when you combine traci...
Podcast: #113 Goodbye Ingress-NGINX  Hello Gateway API!

#113 Goodbye Ingress-NGINX Hello Gateway API!

In this episode we sit down with James Strong, Solutions Architect at Isovalent (the team behind Cilium), to talk about one of the biggest evolutions in Kubernetes networking: the shift from Ingress-NGINX to the Gateway API. James, who is also a maintainer of Ingress-NGINX, explains why the project is being phased out and how the community is building its successor — in-gate, a new implementation designed around the Gateway API. We dive into: Why the Gateway API is the next-generation replace...
Podcast: #112 Stateful on Kubernetes: Lessons from Miro’s Real-Time Platform

#112 Stateful on Kubernetes: Lessons from Miro’s Real-Time Platform

In this episode, we talk with Rodrigo Kuntzer and Andre Mocke from Miro. Their platform enables large-scale, real-time collaboration for thousands of users – and that comes with unique challenges when running on Kubernetes. We cover topics such as: Why stateful workloads and WebSockets are tricky to run in Kubernetes.How Miro tackles scalability and reliability for long-lived connections.The lessons learned while building their own solutions for load balancing and graceful shutdowns.How Kuber...
Podcast: #111 Beyond Orchestration: CNCF’s Past, Present and Future

#111 Beyond Orchestration: CNCF’s Past, Present and Future

In this 11th episode of the 100th-episode series, we speak with Chris Aniszczyk, CTO at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation and the Linux Foundation. He reflects on ten years of CNCF and explains how the community has continually adapted to the needs of its users: from the arrival of Prometheus and containerd, to GitOps tools like Flux and Argo, and the rise of OpenTelemetry as the standard for observability. Chris explains that Kubernetes is much more than just a container orchestrator. T...
