LinuxCon + ContainerCon + CloudOpen China 2018

Serverless is a popular topic nowadays in cloud area. Some scenarios today, like IoT, web app or microservice based architecture, require using Serverless to handle requests. Apache OpenWhisk is a serverless, open source cloud platform that executes functions in response to events at any scale. Kubernetes is a well-known open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. How well can Apache OpenWhisk and Kubernetes work together to build an enterprise level serverless platform? What are the best practices and gotchas? In this session, we will answer these questions. We will introduce how to design and deploy an Apache OpenWhisk based serverless solution over Kubernetes cluster. In addition, we want also to share some code patterns and demos on how to develop applications to this serverless platform.
