Keynote: Containerful Serverless

on YouTube ↗11m

" summary

Argues that serverless evolves from proprietary functions to a portable, container-based model and shows Knative as the practical bridge, citing Docker + Kubernetes, AWS Lambda history, and commercial products that adopt Knative. Demonstrates a concrete outcome: Knative Functions adds a function programming model on top of Knative so applications can move between managed and self‑hosted platforms (migration not automatic). Highlights remaining problems like cold start and experiments with WebAssembly, plus ideas for a serverless Kubernetes control plane and multi-cluster hybrid serverless.
