Dapr: Dinosaur or Developer's Dream? (retired)
Abstract
Dapr is a cloud-native platform that aims to simplify cloud-native application development. It lets you abstract your distributed architecture from the underlying infrastructure that powers it. Forget about Kafka, RabbitMQ or any cloud-specific product: you’re talking with a pub/sub broker. Let Dapr take care of how it works. Want to switch later? Sure, no problem!
This may sound familiar… Wasn’t Jakarta EE supposed to solve these kinds of issues, too? Maybe, Dapr is just the new J2EE application server? Or will it change the way we develop distributed solutions? Join me in this talk to find out if we’re looking at a dinosaur in a fancy suit, or a developer’s dream.
