OpenFaaS VS serverless-graphql

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.

Since then, the ecosystem has changed. Using the Serverless Framework makes deployment simpler. We released the managed Tracetest App making any serverless-based systems simpler to instrument and test. You can now test public-facing apps with no infra overhead!

We see some great results from using these in conjunction with frameworks such as SST or Serverless, and also some real spaghetti from people who organically proliferate 100’s of functions over time and lose track of how they relate to each other or how to update them safely across time and service. Buyer beware!

When we think about AWS serverless service, the first thing that comes to our mind is Lambda function. Yes, the quickest way to deploy this backend Express JS app to AWS is to deploy it as a Lambda function. The easiest way is using Serverless Framework.

In this example, we're using the serverless framework to quickly set up the Lambda function along with an API gateway for the entry point. The lambda function is a simple Koa REST API with a few functional endpoints.

Naturally, there are several options available to declare your cloud resources. The options with the most popularity are the CDK, AWS CloudFormation, SST, Serverless framework, Terraform, and AWS SAM. There are others, but when talking about Infrastructure as Code (IaC), these are the ones you hear about most often.

1 - Serverless + AWS CDK + Lift: An integration that amps up the traditional Serverless Framework with Lift's static frontend construct and CDK's robust infra definition.

It's a bit easier in Python if you use tools like https://www.serverless.com/. I'm not sure if Rust has something similar yet.
