Columns

Earlier this week, Matt Mullenweg and Matt Biilmann squared off in a “fireside chat” about Jamstack vs. WordPress…which got pretty fiery! The official video isn’t yet released, but I had the transcript and so here’s my writeup.

“Developers, developers, developers!” That classic Steve Ballmer chant is being heard loud & clear again in the tech ecosystem, according to the Developer-Led Landscape thesis of Tyler Jewell from Dell Technologies Capital. I spoke to Tyler for my latest column.

My latest column: JAMstack vs. WordPress: which is the future of web architecture? For insights into that question, I spoke with Stackbit CEO (and Netlify board member) Ohad Eder-Pressman. We also discussed his wager with WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg.

I interviewed Sebastien Goasguen from TriggerMesh about the “pipes” of serverless and multicloud.

For my latest column, I spoke with James Roper and Jonas Bonér from Lightbend, Inc. about their “Serverless 2.0” open source project Cloudstate.

My latest column on The New Stack is about the fast-growing trend of low-code.

This week I got some great comments on Twitter and LinkedIn about my column, WordPress Co-Founder Matt Mullenweg Is Not a Fan of JAMstack.

“JAMstack is a regression for the vast majority of the people adopting it,” WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg told me for my column this week. He questions the usability and functionality of JAMstack, and says it is a fragile chain of services.

In my latest column for The New Stack, I talk to Emrah Samdan from Thundra — a serverless product built on Lambda — about platform power and the promise (and limitations!) of serverless.

For this week’s column, I spoke to Evan Weaver (ex-Director of Infrastructure at Twitter) about his serverless database company Fauna.
