Serverless Architectures with Kubernetes

Serverless Architectures with Kubernetes

By: Onur Yılmaz , Sathsara Sarathchandra

Overview of this book

Kubernetes has established itself as the standard platform for container management, orchestration, and deployment. By learning Kubernetes, you’ll be able to design your own serverless architecture by implementing the function-as-a-service (FaaS) model. After an accelerated, hands-on overview of the serverless architecture and various Kubernetes concepts, you’ll cover a wide range of real-world development challenges faced by real-world developers, and explore various techniques to overcome them. You’ll learn how to create production-ready Kubernetes clusters and run serverless applications on them. You'll see how Kubernetes platforms and serverless frameworks such as Kubeless, Apache OpenWhisk and OpenFaaS provide the tooling to help you develop serverless applications on Kubernetes. You'll also learn ways to select the appropriate framework for your upcoming project. By the end of this book, you’ll have the skills and confidence to design your own serverless applications using the power and flexibility of Kubernetes.

Fn Framework

Fn was announced in 2017 by Oracle at the JavaOne 2017 conference as an event-driven and open source Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform. The key characteristics of the framework are as follows:

  • Open source: All the source code of the Fn project is publicly available at https://github.com/fnproject/fn, and the project is hosted at https://fnproject.io. It has an active community on GitHub, with more than 3,300 commits and 1,100 releases, as shown in the following screenshot:

  • Container-native: Containers and microservices have changed the manner of software development and operations. Fn is container-native, meaning that each function is packaged and deployed as a Docker container. Also, it is possible to create your own Docker container and run them as functions.
  • Language support: The framework officially supports Go, Java, Node.js, Ruby, and Python. In addition, C# is supported by the community...
