Snyk Engineering with Guy Podjarny

Snyk is a platform for security that started with open source scanning and has expanded into container security, infrastructure as code, and other products. Snyk is a simple product to use, but has hidden complexities that build large data structures to manage and scan code dynamically.

In a previous episode we discussed the core Snyk product. In today’s show, we talk about the engineering behind Snyk. CEO Guy Podjarny joins the show to talk through the architecture of Snyk and how the company has evolved to serve a variety of use cases.
