A Cloud Economist is Born - The AlterNAT Origin Story
Screaming in the Cloud - Podcast tekijän mukaan Corey Quinn
Ben Whaley, Staff Software Engineer at Chime Financial, joins Corey to discuss his new solution AlterNAT which is designed to solve for egregious NAT Gateway costs. Ben explains how he was inspired to create AlterNAT by searching for the biggest impact he could have on his company’s AWS bill, how he combined legacy NAT Instances with an automatic standby NAT Gateway to solve for reliability concerns, and describes his own journey to becoming a fellow cloud economist in Corey’s eyes. Ben also reveals why he’d consider his project a success even if it became irrelevant.
