Wasm + Kubernetes: Beyond Containers - Sean Isom, Adobe & Colin Murphy, Adobe
WebAssembly represents the future of portable computing, providing an efficient and secure runtime for many languages. In the last year there has been an explosion of growth in Wasm on the backend, from managed platforms, tooling, and further standardization work around WASI. As we look to future cloud-native architectures, often the big questions is: "When is WebAssembly the right choice?" Particularly when looking at existing enterprise architectures and use-cases at organizations large investments in Kubernetes infrastructure, when does the large architectural jump make sense? Can we lessen the overhead by running Wasm workloads inside Kubernetes, allowing us to efficiently utilize existing cluster resources and operations? In this lightning talk, Sean will (briefly) describe some of the ways in which Adobe utilizes Wasm on the backend inside Kubernetes, and what we've found works well (and where the big gaps are). Additionally, learn a little about our architecture for running wasmCloud within our existing K8s clusters and the steps we are taking towards Wasm multi-tenancy.
