Containers, applications, functions: When deploying workloads to cloud platforms, developers have various OSS options. This talk focusses on Kubernetes and compares how Cloud Foundry and Knative relate to it and also how they can extend and improve it.
I’ll compare and contrast the latest experiences of those platforms in order to extract a meaningful comparison from a developer perspective, providing answers to the following questions:
How simple and user-friendly are they? Where are the differences/where are the overlaps? How mature are the individual solutions? Which type of workloads are suitable for which platform?
Additionally, I’ll measure and compare key metrics that affect the developer experience (e.g., time to deploy, time to scale, and more). The overall goal is to better understand what makes each individual useful in the best way and how they can work together. Each technology will be shown with live demos.
