Serving
Apps are Knative Services
Mutable Configuration
Immutable Revisions
Dynamic Routes
Automatic Scaling
Knative
Build
Builds uses Builders to build your app from source to image
Containers are the common language
BuildTemplates define how to build
Easy to extend
Knative
Events
Powerful primitives to connect event sources to consumers
Channels and Subscriptions as layer of abstraction
(Cluster)Bus as middleware implementation
Publish Events without consumers
Start consuming before publisher is even there
Riff
Riff is for Functions
Event Driven FaaS
Opinionated layer on K8s, Istio and Knative
Functions practice Inversion Of Control
No configuration, your logic only!

Abstraction Layers
"The purpose of abstraction is not to be vague, but to create a new semantic level in which one can be absolutely precise"
E.W. Dijkstra
Abstraction Layers
"The entire history of software engineering is that of the rise in levels of abstraction"
Grady Booch
