The path to a Serverless native era with Kubernetes

on YouTube ↗50m

" summary

Shows a working migration path: a CSV→JSON translator built on Google Cloud Functions that fails when retargeted to AWS because proprietary event formats differ, motivating a move to Kubernetes with Knative Serving, Eventing and Tekton Pipelines. Demonstrates scale-to-zero cost savings, cold-starts ranging from milliseconds to several seconds (10–15s reported on some JVM setups), and reuse across clouds when using CloudEvents. Compares Cloud Run, Cloud Run on GKE, Pivotal riff and OpenShift preview and flags governance and vendor-lock issues.
