I've read the announcement now twice but I can't make out what this is actually good for.
I know what they mean with serverless, so that's not it.
- is this tied to CI in any way so stuff can get tested via knative?
- is this CI for functions to be deployed (via OpenFaaS or Lambda)?
- is this just a frontend for serverless backends?
I'm totally lost, I use GitLab as a hosted amount of git repos, with inclusion of CI runners, so maybe that's the wrong angle of approach? Which _problem_ does it solve? Is it to make using serverless easier? If I wanted to use 'functions' would I first have to install GitLab? Why would I use a code hosting platform for that?
- willhallonline 8y agoOverall, this is trying to give more support for pushing functions to Kubernetes using Knative as the method. I believe that there will be some support built in to GitLab for supporting Knative functions. I also know that this already works with OpenFaaS and OpenFaaS cloud, whereas Lambda normally is not deployed directly to Kubernetes, although you can use GitLab CI to do this.
- wink 8y agoThank you, that makes it a bit clearer.
