It has never been a better time to be a developer! Thanks to cloud computing, deploying our applications is much easier than it used to be, especially after Function-as-a-Service emerged. Despite the big names such as AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, etc. how the OpenStack end users(especially public cloud users) can get benefits from FaaS as well?

Qinling, an official OpenStack project which was approved at the end of Queens development cycle, is aiming at providing FaaS for OpenStack. As part of the OpenStack ecosystem, it is tightly integrated with most of the other OpenStack services in order to empower the service users or application developers.

In this presentation, I will revisit the challenges that current FaaS implementations are facing, and how we solved(or partially solved) those issues in Qinling. Most importantly, this topic will also cover how Qinling interacts with other open source community(e.g. Kubernetes, Kata Containers) during its implementation.
