Beyond Kubernetes

Explore the cutting-edge technologies that extend Kubernetes in this comprehensive conference talk. Dive deep into the layers of abstraction that enable rapid deployment of function source code to Kubernetes. Examine the roles of Istio, Knative, riff, and Spring Cloud Function in enhancing Kubernetes capabilities. Learn how Custom Resource Definitions support microservices autoscaling, application revision routing, and unified event-driven workloads. Discover how riff has been replatformed to leverage Knative while maintaining its Function as a Service simplicity. Investigate the use of Spring Cloud Function to create functions that process both synchronous HTTP requests and event-based messages using riff and Knative. Gain insights from industry experts Ray Tsang and Eric Bottard as they unravel the complexities behind seamless function deployment and management in Kubernetes environments.
