I was thinking on build my local serverless server, so I can deploy my services easily (almost as easy as docker, but with less overhead I think), there are few downsides I think and it's that docker let more variety of software run, while a serverless host need specifically or in most cases Wasm.
Said that I have no idea how to start, will this be a good foundation to build an easy to deploy local server? (think of aws lambdas, vercel, cloudflare workers, fly.io, etc).
- qbasic_forever 4y agoDo you want to use a FaaS or just toy with making your own? If you just want to use something check out OpenFaaS, it's very easy to get started and is well documented: https://www.openfaas.com/ https://www.openfaas.com/ If you want to build your own FaaS, I'd still explore OpenFaaS as its creator has documented a lot of its creation and you will soon discover the critical things you'll need to figure out for building your own similar service (i.e. stuff like sandboxed execution environment, API gateway, scaling up and down functions, etc.).
- norman784 4y agoThanks, I will check OpenFaaS out.
