WebAssembly on the Server - Exploring Server-Side Applications and Integration

Explore the role of WebAssembly (Wasm) on the server side in this 44-minute conference talk by Vivian Hu from Second State. Learn about the integration between Wasm and existing container tools, discover use cases for server-side WebAssembly, and understand why Wasm is considered the future of cloud native computing. Delve into how Wasm provides a more secure, lighter, faster, and portable alternative to Linux containers for performance-oriented server-side applications. Gain insights into CNCF-hosted Wasm-focused projects such as WasmEdge, WasmCloud, and runwasi. Additionally, examine the potential role of Wasm in LLM applications and its impact on the cloud native landscape.
