Listen "Episode 20 — Compute Abstractions: VMs, Containers and Serverless Placement"

Episode Synopsis


Cloud computing offers multiple layers of abstraction, each with its own strengths and risks. In this episode, we compare virtual machines, containers, and serverless computing, showing how they differ in architecture, performance, and security responsibilities. You’ll learn how placement decisions affect monitoring, patching, and runtime protection.By understanding these abstractions, you’ll gain insight into how exam scenarios test trade-offs between control and efficiency. This knowledge prepares you to evaluate workloads in different contexts and secure them appropriately. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
