#62: Kubernetes Isn’t Enough with Mark Fussell from Diagrid & Dapr

Kubernetes alone isn’t enough! This is what we discuss with Mark Fussell, co-creator of Dapr and Diagrid co-founder. How Dapr’s sidecar gives developers clean APIs (pub/sub, service invocation, secrets, state) with tiny overhead? And how durable workflows and “agentic” apps with Dapr Agents actually function? Also in this epsiode:

• A short history of architecture models;
• Differences between service meshes and Dapr;
• Agentic systems and conductors: what is what?
• The future of agentic applications;
• Will the sidecar model go away?
