Dapr in Practice - Building Cloud Native Applications with Distributed Application Runtime

Explore the Distributed Application Runtime (Dapr) in this 46-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Dive into the open-source CNCF project that provides developers with cloud-native capabilities for reliable service invocation, asynchronous messaging, state management, and cross-cutting concerns. Learn how Dapr's standardized APIs decouple application code from underlying infrastructure, enabling language and platform-independent implementation of distributed systems. Discover the benefits and trade-offs of operating at a higher level of abstraction, and examine Dapr's building blocks for solving typical cloud-native application challenges. Gain insights into adoption strategies for both greenfield and migration scenarios, handling edge cases, and extending Dapr with custom capabilities. Compare Dapr to related technologies like service meshes and understand its organizational implications for application and platform engineering teams.
