E14: Patrick McFadin, VP Developer Relations at DataStax & leading expert of Apache Cassandra

Today I had a fun and engaging conversation with Patrick McFadin, the VP of Developer Relations at DataStax. Patrick is one of the leading experts of Apache Cassandre which is an open-source database management system. Patrick and I also discussed:

• The changing attitudes towards open source from the 90’s to today.
• He also gives examples of open source has reset the economics of building software in the past and goes on to explain how Kubernetes is again resetting the economics.
• Another interesting topic we discussed is the growing importance of Site Reliability Engineers in the database world.
