Lightning Talk: The State Of FaaS on Kubernetes - Michael Hausenblas, Red Hat

on YouTube ↗05m

" summary

Overview of who is doing what: compares concrete FaaS projects like Apache OpenWhisk, kubeless and OpenFaaS, notes common use cases—cron replacements, image thumbnails, sensor telemetry—and reports a 70% Lambda prevalence from a 2016 survey. Claims FaaS fits event-driven, tiny stateless functions but raises operational gaps: developer-on-call unclear ownership, scaling to hundreds of functions needs orchestration and only IBM has a visible open source workflow effort so far.
