Summary
Katharina Probst talks about the situations in which server-side scripting is a good solution for applications. She describes Netflix’s first approach, which uses Groovy scripts. She details how the scripts are uploaded and can make use of shared modules and then dives into a new approach that isolates the scripts into their own containers without compromising the original goals.
