Salve, How can we reduce the fear and cost of change? Is it possible to have multiple languages and frameworks working together side by side? How can we keep systems alive longer and with less pain? Today we talk with Chad Fowler, CTO at 6Wunderkinder, the creators of Wunderlist, and he will share with us how they are using Immutable Infrastructure to work around these problems. Related to the subject, I would like to recommend microXchg 2015, the Microservices Conference in Berlin, that will take place in February 12 and 13, 2015. It's a two day, two track conference with a ton of practioners, including Chad Fowler, James Lewis from Thoughtworks (co-author or the big article about Microservices with Martin Fowler), Adrian Cockcroft, the former cloud architect at Netflix and many others. It's limited to 200 seats, I recommend you register right away. UPDATE NOTICE: I remixed the episode boosting the interview volume, it should be much better now. Thanks a lot for the feedback, I'll be more careful in the future and now I learned how to fix it :) Feedback, corrections and suggestions are welcome.

Salve, Welcome to the first episode of Mind the Cloud, the podcast about the developers and companies using the cloud to create the future. In this episode we talk with 2 people that are building cloud infrastructure or apps but aren't using the most common IaaS building blocks, namely virtual machines, and decided to run most things on baremetal. We'll try to understand the reasons behind this choice and its trade-offs, regarding cost, performance and even privacy. The first is Marko Anastasov from Semaphore, they run a hosted continuous integration and delivery service. The second is John-Paul Bader from Wooga Games, which specializes in casual games. Some interviews were recorded during events, which are pretty noisy environments. I'm working improve this for the next episodes, sorry about that. Feedback, corrections and suggestions are welcome.
