Aflevering 112: Stateful on Kubernetes: Lessons from Miro’s Real-Time Platform

In this episode, we talk with Rodrigo Kuntzer and Andre Mocke from Miro. Their platform enables large-scale, real-time collaboration for thousands of users – and that comes with unique challenges when running on Kubernetes. We cover topics such as: Why stateful workloads and WebSockets are tricky to run in Kubernetes. How Miro tackles scalability and reliability for long-lived connections. The lessons learned while building their own solutions for load balancing and graceful shutdowns. How Kubernetes’ flexibility helps them continue to grow their product. An episode full of practical experiences, technical takeaways, and inspiration for anyone working with real-time applications or Kubernetes at scale.
