Epic Federation: Scaling Web Infrastructure with Zackary Jackson
Manage episode 465707701 series 2530175
Zackary Jackson joins Kent to discuss his upcoming talk at Epic Web Conf, Epic Federation: Scaling Web Infrastructure. As an expert in large-scale web architecture, Zack has helped build critical tools like Module Federation and RSPack, both of which power ByteDance’s global infrastructure.
In this conversation, Kent and Zack cover:
- The challenges of managing thousands of developers and repos across multiple teams.
- Why ByteDance chose to build its own bundler in Rust instead of adopting an existing solution.
- The impact of slow build times on product velocity and how tooling improvements significantly reduce development friction.
- The role of Module Federation in solving organizational scale problems, allowing teams to ship independently.
- How AI-powered tools are shaping the next generation of developer workflows.
Zack also shares his thoughts on why meeting open-source maintainers and industry leaders in person can unlock collaboration opportunities that aren’t as easily accessible online.
