Description
Bret is joined by Lukas Gentele and Rich Burroughs from Loft Labs to look at a new project called DevPod, that supports dev containers and VMs. It works with local Docker instances and AWS, GCP, Azure, and several other cloud providers. The project is compatible with Microsoft's DevContainer standard, which means it works with the VC Code standalone app and VS Code in the browser.Lukas and Rich were on this show last year, showing off vcluster, which allows you to run a full Kubernetes cluster inside an existing Kubernetes namespace. In this episode, we announce the release of DevPod and also go through some demos. I'm already thinking of how I might use it in my own developer workflow.Live recording of the complete show from May 16, 2023 is on YouTube (Ep. #216). Includes demos.★Topics★DevPod websiteDevPod on TwitterSupport this show and get exclusive benefits on Patreon, YouTube, or bretfisher.com!★Join my Community★New live course on CI automation and gitops deploymentsBest coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes coursesChat with us and fellow students on our Discord Server DevOps FansGrab some merch at Bret's Loot BoxHomepage bretfisher.comCreators & Guests

Windows 10 Containers Get Process Isolation: In Docker 18.09.1 and Docker Desktop 2.0.0.2 (stable) in January 2019, we now have a new option for running Windows Containers on Windows 10 in "process isolation mode" which removes the need to launch a full Windows Server Hyper-V VM. by DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
