This series was co-written by Tyler Sullberg and Musa Barighzaai. CircleCI is growing, which is wonderful. However, one of the growth challenges we have is that our backend is primarily written in Clojure, and few developers know Clojure. Many CircleCI engineers, including myself, have learned Clojure on the job. Before joining CircleCI, I was a JavaScript developer. As the lingua franca of software engineers, JavaScript is a relatively straightforward language to learn.

High-availability connectivity for Kubernetes with dual ToR

Dual ToR (top of rack) peering provides a redundant path for customers with cluster applications that cannot tolerate service downtime or failure and require a high-availability solution. While Calico ToR connectivity has existed for some time, Calico Enterprise now supports connectivity with dual ToR switches.
