This is a little hard to understand without more context. What's a "Spin WebAssembly application"?
edit: Seems to be this: https://developer.fermyon.com/spin/v2/index
This reminds me of Lunatic [1], an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly. Unfortunately it seems like development stalled some months ago.
So interesting seeing this hit the front page while being sat in an auditorium in Barcelona at wasm i/o listening to one of the original creators of Krustlet, Taylor Thomas from Cosmonic, compare and contrast literally this 'wrapped in k8s' approach to the 'alongside k8s' interop alternative.
Great talk, highly recommend watching it on YouTube if you're into this kind of thing. No link but I imagine it'll be up pretty soon.
Hi, everyone! I'm one of the maintainers, I'd love to chat about the project and about how and why we built it.
Fermyon and Spinkube are doing a great job with this. WASM FTW!
Why are WebAssembly binaries smaller than native?
How does this compare to krustlet.dev?
Now all the complexity of Java and .NET application servers, with YAML spaghetti, and distributed systems infrastructure configuration.
Progress is wonderfull! /s
I attended a talk by these folks at KubeCon last year - really great stuff. Sadly I'm not in a position to do anything with WASM in my professional life (and I have other priorities in my personal projects), but this for me is the "next big thing", more than any AI fluff - it will go unnoticed because it's low-level and transparent, but I'd bet paycheques on it having a huge impact in the coming years. Seems like a really exciting thing to be a part of.
