Overview of this book

Kubernetes has established itself as the standard platform for container management, orchestration, and deployment. It has been adopted by companies such as Google, its original developers, and Microsoft as an integral part of their public cloud platforms, so that you can develop for Kubernetes and not worry about being locked into a single vendor. This book will initially start by introducing serverless functions. Then you will configure tools such as Minikube to run Kubernetes. Once you are up-and-running, you will install and configure Kubeless, your first step towards running Function as a Service (FaaS) on Kubernetes. Then you will gradually move towards running Fission, a framework used for managing serverless functions on Kubernetes environments. Towards the end of the book, you will also work with Kubernetes functions on public and private clouds. By the end of this book, we will have mastered using Function as a Service on Kubernetes environments.

Summary

In this chapter, we have taken a slight diversion to look at Apache OpenWhisk. We have deployed a copy locally using a standard virtual machine and then we moved onto deploying it to a Kubernetes cluster running on Google Cloud.

As you saw, once the deployment was complete, interacting with Apache OpenWhisk was a consistent experience and we were able to deploy our simple hello-world application with no modifications to both of our installations.

While Kubernetes support for Apache OpenWhisk is still in its infancy, our diversion has shown that it isn't just frameworks that have been designed with Kubernetes in mind, like the tools we have looked at in the previous chapters, which will run on top of a Kubernetes and provide a consistent experience without having to lock you into a single vendor or technology.

In the next chapter, we are going to be looking at probably...
