In the new version of Fission, Platform9 has introduced two major capabilities which further enable developers to accelerate their deployment of serverless computing: Fission declarative specifications & Function auto-scaling

1. New Fission Capabilities
Accelerate Deployment of
Serverless Computing
Jeremy Brooks
Director, Customer Success

2. Serverless computing helps developers do more with less...
• Abstracts servers, infrastructure,
operating systems
• Takes away manual, repetitive tasks
• Allows developers to innovate,
develop and deploy apps faster
Developers can focus on accelerating delivery of
new business functionality

3. Using Kubernetes speeds app development but…
…there is still “software plumbing”
• Code/function writing
• Code deployment
• Containers built and registered
• Configuration on Kubernetes

4. Fission lets developers focus on coding, not plumbing
• Use Kubernetes and containers
without a steep learning curve
• Write short-lived functions in
any language
• Map functions to triggers (e.g.,
message queues, timers,
HTTP requests)
 No containers to build
 No Docker registries
 Works on any Kubernetes
cluster, anywhere
 Extensible to any language
Enter Fission...
Function as a Service (FaaS) serverless
framework
Open source alternative to AWS Lambda

5. Fission Workflows enables complex application development
Developers can use
Workflows to
• Compose larger app
concepts as workflows
• Reuse serverless
functions
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and
upgrade entire workflows
 Built on Kubernetes and Fission
 Open source framework
 Fault tolerant capabilities

6. New Fission Capabilities
Further enable developers to accelerate
deployment of serverless computing

7. Fission Declarative Specifications
Developers now can define
a function once and deploy
it anywhere.
• Manage serverless code
across multiple endpoints
more easily
• Reduce time involved to
manage deployment
functions
f

8. Function Auto-Scaling
Automatically scale
functions horizontally as
more load is needed
• Responses always
handled in time
• Increases developer
productivity
• Ensures requests
aren’t lost
