Building a FaaS Platform Using CNCF OSS Projects

on YouTube ↗28m

" summary

Shows a working FaaS platform built from CNCF pieces: a single command (kubectl apply) creates a Crossplane composition that provisions a vcluster, database and app, then deploys a Knative function into that isolated dev environment. The demo uses vcluster isolation and a shared Knative host via vcluster plugins so many dev clusters avoid redundant installs. Developers push changes with func deploy without Docker and ArgoCD handles production sync; the live demo successfully created an environment, ran the app, and updated behavior (emoji output) in minutes.
