Listen "121 - Edge Computing with Jaxon Repp"
Episode Synopsis
What is "The Edge"? The answer is that it means different things to different people, but it always involves lifting logic, data, and processing load off of your backend servers and onto other machines. Sometimes those machines are spread out over many small datacenters, or sometimes they are in the hands of your customers. In all cases, computing on the edge is a different paradigm that requires new ways of thinking about coding. We're super lucky to have Jaxon on the show to share his experiences with edge computing and dive into this topic!!00:00:23 Introduction00:01:15 Introducing Jaxon Repp00:01:42 What is HarperDB?00:08:10 Edge Computing00:10:06 What is the “Edge”00:14:58 Jaxon’s history with Edge Computing and HarperDB00:22:35 Edge Computing in everyday life00:26:12 Tesla AI and data00:28:09 Edge Computing in the oil industry00:35:23 Docker containers00:42:33 Databases00:48:29 Data Conflicts00:55:43 HarperDB for personal use01:00:00 MeteorJS01:02:29 Netflix, as an example01:06:19 The speed of edge computing01:08:43 HarperDB’s work environment and who is Harper?01:10:30 The Great Debate01:12:17 Career opportunities in HarperDB01:18:56 Quantum computing01:21:22 Reach HarperDB01:23:53 Raspberry Pi and HarperDB home applications01:27:20 FarewellsResources mentioned in this episode:CompaniesHarperDB https://harperdb.io/MeteorJS https://www.meteor.com/ToolsRaspberry Pi https://www.raspberrypi.org/Docker https://www.docker.com/If you’ve enjoyed this episode, you can listen to more on Programming Throwdown’s website: https://www.programmingthrowdown.com/Reach out to us via email: [email protected] can also follow Programming Throwdown on Facebook | Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Player.FM Join the discussion on our DiscordHelp support Programming Throwdown through our Patreon
