Operating a Global-Scale FaaS on Top of Kubernetes
summary
Oracle builds a global-scale FaaS on Kubernetes using the open-source Fn Project, targeting 15+ regions and enterprise SLAs. Deployments use Helm values plus deployment scripts and CI hooks; storage is MySQL/Redis managed by operators and monitored with Prometheus. Short-lived containers run on isolated runner instances managed by a node pool manager (runners live outside the cluster to avoid noisy-neighbor I/O). A multi-cloud demo (OCI + GKE) runs TensorFlow models that recognize ~75 objects and reports results to Slack, proving the system works end-to-end.
