Why Reliability in the AI Era Starts with the Network with Marino Wijay
Description
In this episode, we explore how networking has shaped reliability as we know it. Marino Wijay cloud networking expert and Staff Solutions Architect at Kong shares how his journey began not as an SRE, but with cables, routers, and switches.
Marino explains the evolution of the fabric holding systems together through virtualization, and how software-defined networking, which is now a key element to resilient applications.
This episode also dives into the new challenges LLMs are introducing into networking. Marino discusses how these workloads introduce new types of reliability challenges: longer response times, context preservation, model switching, and request sanitization.
Finally, Marino emphasizes the human role. Behind every protocol, abstraction layer, and model prompt is a human providing context, compassion, and a sense of accountability.
