In this episode, we chat with David Mytton, founder and CEO of Arcjet and creator of console.dev. We explore his journey from building a cloud monitoring startup to founding a security-as-code company. David shares fascinating insights about bot detection, the challenges of securing modern applications, and why traditional security approaches often fail to meet developers' needs. We discuss the innovative use of WebAssembly for high-performance security checks, the importance of developer experience in security tools, and the delicate balance between security and latency. The conversation also covers his work on environmental technology and cloud computing sustainability, as well as his experience reviewing developer tools for console.dev, where he emphasizes the critical role of documentation in distinguishing great developer tools from mediocre ones.Chapters00:00 Introduction to David Mytton and Arcjet07:09 The Evolution of Observability12:37 The Future of Observability Tools18:19 Innovations in Data Storage for Observability23:57 Challenges in AI Implementation31:33 The Dichotomy of AI and Human Involvement36:17 Detecting Bots: Techniques and Challenges42:46 AI's Role in Enhancing Security47:52 Latency and Decision-Making in Security52:40 Managing Software Lifecycle and Observability58:58 The Role of Documentation in Developer ToolsClick here to view the episode transcript.
