riffing on Kubernetes
summary
riff builds functions into OCI images using buildpacks with kpack, produces Kubernetes Deployments/Services or Knative services, and supports HTTP request/response and a new streaming model wired to Kafka. Demo builds show tiny function layers (fast updates), HTTP runtime is minimal and low-latency, Knative adds autoscaling and cold-start tradeoffs, and the experimental streaming runtime uses Reactor types and streaming runtime scales on input lag. Demos are flaky but mostly functional.
