This is the first episode of the Computing Podcast. There's massive innovation happening in all layers of the modern application. Starting from cloud substrates all the way to the edges like your browser or an IoT device. Today we begin by talking about the fourth wave of distributed systems. Going from NoSQL to NewSQL.

Part 1: Apache Kafka - Walkthrough of a distributed system

The Computing Podcast where we talk about all things computer science, direct from Silicon Valley. Into databases distributed system and building large scale software products? Then this is the Podcast for you. Hosted by Alex Feinberg and Vikram Rangnekar. Between the two of us we have worked for companies like Linkedin, Amazon, Microsoft, Cloudera building stateful distributed systems and ad serving engines.
