Knative: Is it for me?
summary
Knative is shown as an operational serverless layer on Kubernetes with concrete tooling: the demo uses func, buildpacks, kn and a Docker registry to build and push a Node.js function that uppercases a name, connects to Knative Serving and Eventing via CloudEvents adapters and a Broker/Channel setup, and exercises 100 concurrent requests revealing cold-start latency until configuring min=1 replica and a 10s grace period; deployment creates revisions and supports 50/50 traffic split, and the function runs successfully.
