OpenFaaS VS fission

Serverless functions are now offered by many cloud providers, as well as having options like OpenFaaS, Knative, Apache's Openwhisk and more from the open source community that run in environments ranging from one server all the way up to globally replicated private clusters.

OpenFaaS

Did you consider running knative or openfaas? https://github.com/openfaas/faas

Anyone knows other alternatives for Azure Functions, but for DIY hosting? ( eg. OpenFaas - https://www.openfaas.com/ )

Maybe OpenFaaS with grafana and slack notifications for non-200 responses?

By the way, if your organization is leveraging EKS as a platform and your DevOps team is willing to enable this operator, there's an exciting tool called OpenFaaS. Essentially, it enables you to host your Lambda functions on your own infrastructure instead of relying on the public cloud provider.

This is where I see K8S coming in – teachers can provide dev deployments that are setup for students to learn. Teachers can also provide containers that run automated tests against the student containers for assessment! Plus, we can smooth over some of the git workflow stuff for the ripest of beginners; we can integrate with github to sync their work on our platform to repositories on their github account, so that they can really take ownership of the work they do on the platform. Last, students can graduate their work from development into production very easily, since we can take the base images + student diffs, build a new "prod" image for the student. We can run students' prod work on "serverless" K8S frameworks like fission or OpenFaas to be able to host many low-traffic "production" apps at the same time.

I use https://fission.io/ on Kubernetes to emulate AWS Lambda + API Gateway to run Python functions. I use their YAML Spec functionality to deploy functions. It works well for my use case.

After doing a lot of research, I ended up settling on the Fission.io framework to support this project. Fission is an open-source Serverless framework running in kubernetes. Think AWS Lambdas, but we are in control of every part of the infrastructure. Kubernetes gives us the power to define the environments the containers will be executed in, and any other resources they need. This gives us the control we need to be able to create our very own environment for executing arbitrary JavaScript through the V8 engine. Each function can be isolated as much as we need to and Fission is really great at giving us the ability to quickly create multiple environments.

Nope. I was using https://fission.io/

There are a lot of FaaS service offerings out there namely Lambda, Azure Functions, Google Cloud Functions to name a few. While these offerings run on their respective clouds, there are services like Fission that are open source and allow you to deploy and execute functions on Kubernetes clusters irrespective of where they reside.

It's super slow (20-50 rps), please try this instead : https://github.com/fission/fission (few hundreds to few thousands rps)
