Vue Storefront VS OpenFaaS

4+ years in and we are 100+ people company covering most of the commerce platforms out there - check it out www.vuestorefront.io

We're currently building an integration between Vue Storefront (https://www.vuestorefront.io/) and WooCommerce.

If you are looking for a production-ready Nuxt application with Shopify, check out https://www.vuestorefront.io/ and especially, the integration with Shopify https://docs.vuestorefront.io/shopify/.

Vue Storefront is an open source frontend framework for headless ecommerce built on top of Vue.js. It provides ready-made integrations to existing ecommerce platforms and allows you to extend the framework to build your own integration.

To enable Cache on the browser level, we will be using a http-cache package from Vue Storefront that you can check out here.

Vue Storefront is Lightning-Fast Frontend Platform for Headless Commerce. Boost your site performance, shape the customer journey and free your developer's creativity with Vue Storefront, the last frontend you will ever need.

For the storefront you have many options. For instance, there is Vue Storefront or Next.js Commerce.

Vue storefront is an open source platform that provides a storefront for ecommerce platforms. Although it integrates with many monolithic platforms, it is made specifically for headless commerce platforms.

Personally if I were hiring for this today I'd look for someone with prior experience with a "headless" solution that works with multiple ecommerce platforms. Vue Storefront and Gatsby are the best of the bunch in my opinion.

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.
