Developing Open Serverless Solutions

Serverless computing greatly simplifies software development. Your team can focus solely on your application while the cloud provider manages the servers you need. This practical guide shows you step-by-step how to build and deploy complex applications in a flexible multicloud, multilanguage environment using Apache Open Whisk. Youll learn how this platform enables you to pursue a vendor-independent approach using preconfigured containers, microservices, and Kubernetes as your cloud operating system.Michele Sciabarr demonstrates how to build a serverless application using classical design patterns and the programming language or languages that best fit your task. Youll start by building a simple serverless application hands-on before diving into the more complex aspects of the Open Whisk platform.Examine how Open Whisks serverless architecture works, including the use of packages, actions, sequences, triggers, rules, and feeds Learn how Open Whisk compares to existing architectures, such as Java Enterprise Edition Manipulate Open Whisk features using the command-line interface or a Java Script APIDesign applications using common Gang of Four design patterns Use architectural design patterns such as model-view-controller to combine several Open Whisk actions Learn how to test and debug your code in a serverless environment
