WebAssembly on the server side comes with many usecases and in this meetup we will try to explore WebAssembly and see its benefits with cloud native. We will also do a Hands on Workshop.
Talk 1- WebAssembly’s Secret to Success: The Component Model by Matt Butcher & Radu Matei (Fermyon)
One of the emerging standards in WebAssembly is the Component Model. In this talk, we explain what it is, how it works, and why it will unlock new ways of building applications.
We will talk about:
Wasm’s format and why it’s special
The host/guest boundary
Describing interfaces with WIT
What the future holds, and why it’s exciting:
Cross-language modules
Fine-grained security
More
Getting involved and the Bytecode Alliance
Talk 2 - WebAssembly and Kubernetes - Saiyam Pathai(Civo)
In this Talk Saiyam will talk about the Webassembly and Kubernetes integration and where they fit in well, how can you today run Webassembly workloads inside a Kubernetes cluster with a demo.
Workshoip -
Getting Started with Spin - Fermyon team and Saiyam
This workshop introduces WebAssembly as a concept while also walking you through the creation of your first (and maybe second or third) WebAssemlby cloud applications. Along the way, you’ll learn what languages are supported, how to use important features, and where you can run these applications.
Networking and Snacks after the session
Please bring Laptop in case you wish to do the workshop side by side hands on
