OpenFaaS has been pretty easy to work with for anything we've thrown at it, ranging from web scraping to ML deployment. If anyone here has been on the fence, definitely give it a shot.
Back when we first set it up a few of the defaults were utter garbage (like autoscaling which (thankfully slowly) ramped up or down between MIN and MAX instances based purely on whether you were above or below a qps threshold), but there aren't all that many features, so reading the whole manual and configuring it like you want is a cinch.
- dreamer7 6y agoCould you give a TL;DR version of how we can use OpenFaaS with Google Cloud Functions? Or is it meant to be deployed to GKE?
- hansvm 6y agoOpenFaaS is more-or-less a competitor to Google Cloud Functions or AWS Lambda. None is really quite a subset of the other in terms of features, so you might gain some benefit by using multiple FaaS offerings, but they all occupy the same niche. You can deploy OpenFaas on any Kubernetes offering, Google Cloud Run, Docker Swarm, etc... It runs on your favorite Docker substrate without much hassle.
- js4ever 6y agoOpenFaaS is great ... But its quite slow compared to something like Nuclio: https://github.com/nuclio/nuclio https://github.com/nuclio/nuclio
- hansvm 6y agoThanks for that pointer. Nuclio wasn't on my radar.
