Securing Serverless Functions on Kubernetes with Quarkus Extensions

on YouTube ↗50m

" summary

Creates and deploys a Quarkus function to Kubernetes using kn func and Cloud Native Buildpacks, pushes an image to registry, and leverages Knative to scale to zero and cold‑start on demand; binds Kubernetes Secrets via the Quarkus kubernetes-config extension to inject DB credentials (demo secret name dbcredentials), returns JSON and works end‑to‑end. Claims native compilation (GraalVM) reduces startup from ~0.85s (JVM) to ~80ms and memory from ~80MB to ~4.5MB; live coding and continuous test loops run locally while native builds run in CI.
