Serverless Practitioners Summit 2019
as the organisers put it
Where the serverless community and present end users unite with comprehensive strategies to understand serverless in a cloud native context.
who it's for
serverless engineers, platform engineers, kubernetes operators, cloud architects, developer experience engineers, site reliability engineers, Java developers
topics
Tekton CI/CD pipelines for functions; CloudFormation and S3-backed deployments; OpenWhisk router with Envoy gateway; Knative autoscaling using concurrency and RPS; KEDA with HPA and event scalers; OpenFaaS plus Okteto hot reload workflow; Prometheus-driven autoscaling and alerts; NATS async messaging for background work; Confluent Cloud Kafka with ksqlDB streaming; Lightweight session layer for stateful serverless; GraalVM native-image for fast Java cold starts; OCI image packaging and CloudEvents contracts
