It was excellent joining Michael Vizard on the Cloud Native Now podcast this week, talking event-driven architecture, observability in cloud-native platforms, and the question of security in the open source application stack. We're seeing more event-driven cloud-native applications. Historically, event-driven architectures were complex and resource-intensive, making them less appealing for developers. However, advancements in storage, networking, and the widespread adoption of open-source tools like Kafka and MQTT have simplified the implementation of event-driven systems. This shift is evident in modern applications, including e-commerce platforms and IoT systems, where real-time processing and responsiveness are critical. Observability has become a cornerstone of managing cloud-native environments, particularly with the proliferation of microservices and Kubernetes. Traditional monitoring techniques fall short in these dynamic and distributed systems. Tools like StackState, integrated into platforms like SUSE's Rancher, enhance observability by providing insights into system behavior and performance. The introduction of AI-driven observability tools further aids in preemptively identifying and addressing issues, thus reducing the cognitive load on developers and allowing for more efficient system management. Security in the cloud-native landscape continues to be a contentious topic. While containerized applications offer advantages in terms of modularity and ease of updates, they also introduce complexities due to the sheer number of components and dependencies. The open-source nature of many cloud-native tools can be both a strength and a vulnerability. The collaborative nature of open-source development enables rapid identification and patching of vulnerabilities, but it also requires constant vigilance against supply chain attacks. Bridging the gap between security teams and developers remains crucial to ensuring robust security postures in these modern architectures.

There are two types of companies. Those that have experienced a data security breach and those that will be. This is why I have been on a journey to help educate our Salesforce ecosystem about the real costs of an attack and preventative mitigation strategies. Thanks for having me on the podcast, Tom Bassett and hope that others are inspired to Be More Secure with their Salesforce data security. #Salesforce #SalesforceThreatProtection #Security #CloudSecurity #TrailblazerCommunity
