Serverless or Serverfull - Microservices and Functions
Explore the world of serverless computing and microservices in this 51-minute Devoxx conference talk. Delve into OpenWhisk, an open-source Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) engine built on Kubernetes, and discover how it integrates with various cloud-hosted and on-premise services. Learn why "serverless" is a misnomer and understand how future cloud-native applications will likely combine both microservices and functions, often containerized using Linux. Gain insights into the operational aspects of managing infrastructure that developers can potentially ignore in serverless architectures. Examine the relationship between serverless computing and traditional microservices, and consider the implications for developing modern, scalable applications.
