This week on The Business of Open Source, I have a special episode recorded on-site at KubeCon NA this fall, with Ramiro Berrelleza, the CEO of Okteto. We kicked off the conversation with a discussion about branding. Okteto is the name of the company, the name of the project and the name of the product. We started this conversation because it had been a big part of conversations I had with other founders at KubeCon. Most interesting to me was that while Ramiro explained how that decision was made, he said he was 50% happy with it, 50% not. Which is about the same as what I hear from founders who have made the opposite decision — so maybe there is just no ideal way to approach branding. Some other things we discussed: What's the different from fully embracing open source versus just having an OSI-approved licenseNot donating the project to the CNCF specifically because he wanted to maintain control over the brand; a decision he thinks was a correct one. The specifics of developer marketing, and especially how sometimes developer marketing can be a mix of B2B marketing and B2C. The tensions between the needs and desires of individual users and the needs and desires of their employers. Ramiro and I are on the same wavelength about a couple of things; I particularly appreciated his distinction between users and customers. We ended the conversation with a discussion of the benefits of open source companies — the opportunities that come from being open source that you can't get any other way. Having trouble taking full advantage of your open source project? You might want to work with me, and / or come to Open Source Founders Summit to chat with other open source founders.

In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Ramiro Berrelleza, CEO of Okteto, a software development microservices platform that's raised over $18 Million in funding, about how inefficiencies in software development cycles can undermine long-term business success, and why Okteto saw this challenge as an opportunity to carve out a new market category. By providing cloud-integrated development support services for engineering teams, helping them coordinate, collaborate and innovate remotely, Okteto helps make sure that their clients don't fall behind the competition when it comes to the rate at which they can deploy their critical software solutions. We also spoke about why Ramiro prefers to focus on teams, and doesn't quite buy into the myth of the charismatic leader, the challenges of creating a new market category and the benefits of leading market once you've done so, and why storytelling is a critical skill for any founder, even those working in a tech-orientated market space. By driving a sense of urgency. Topics Discussed: A lifetime in tech, how computer games led Ramiro to cloud-integrated software solutions Leaving Mexico to pursue a career in big tech and what ‘becoming Californian' means for a Mexican migrant How Okteto identified DevOps inefficiency as a critical challenge for contemporary businesses Why Ramiro believes the key to strong businesses lies in building great teams, rather than relying on an individual founder Why storytelling has become a mission critical skill for Ramiro, and all founders seeking to create a new market category The challenge of carving a new space in a crowded market, but why the benefits of leading an industry are ultimately a worthwhile payoff Favorite book: The Design Of Everyday Things
https://go.dok.community/slack https://dok.community/ From the DoK Day EU 2022 (https://youtu.be/Xi-h4XNd5tE) Kubernetes comes with a lot of useful features like Volumes and StatefulSets, which make running stateful workloads simple. Interestingly, when combined with the right tools, these features can make Kubernetes very valuable for developers wanting to run massive production databases in development! This is exactly what was seen at "Extendi". The developers at Extendi deal with a large amount of data in their production Kubernetes clusters. But when developing locally, they didn't have an easy way of replicating this data. This replication was needed because it allowed developers to test new features instantaneously without worrying if they would work as expected when pushed to production. But replicating a 100Gb+ production database for development wasn't turning out to be an easy task! This is where leveraging Kubernetes + remote development environments came to the rescue. Running data on Kubernetes turned out to be way faster than any of the traditional approaches because of Kubernetes' ability to handle stateful workloads exceptionally well. And since Extendi already used Kubernetes in production - the setup process was fairly simple. This talk will cover practical steps on how leveraging Kubernetes based development environments allowed dev teams at Extendi to run production data on Kubernetes during development using features like Volume Snapshots, having a huge positive impact on developer productivity.

https://go.dok.community/slack Abstract of the talk… Developers spend a lot of time making their local machine look like a cluster. But why do we do that? Our local machine is not where our code is supposed to run! We built okteto (github.com/okteto/okteto) so we can make our Kubernetes clusters look like our local machine. In this talk, we'll show you how okteto helps you take advantage of all the goodness of Kubernetes and the cloud without having to sacrifice a really fast development and feedback loop. Bio… Ramiro Berrelleza is one of the makers of Okteto. He has spent most of his career (and his free time) building cloud services and developer tools. Before starting Okteto, Ramiro was an Architect at Atlassian and a Software Engineer at Microsoft Azure. Originally from Mexico, he currently lives in San Francisco. Key take-aways from the talk… If you're building a Cloud Native app, you should use Kubernetes as part of your development environment, instead of just using it as a deployment target. Don't build, push, redeploy on every change.
