#openfaas — Public Fediverse posts

Looking into internal function solutions and #OpenFAAS looked interesting - but then you look at the price, because they lock private registry access behind the paid version - and then you see this is the price.... per cluster.... This is more than our entire cluster costs per month so we'd more than double our costs.

I'm imagining the Enterprise level is going to cost even more $$$$.

Despite red flags at every turn, I ended up with #openfaas and a simple python script. (It needs rewriting in node or something, but it mostly works and only sometimes crashes.)

I'll never use openfaas commercially again though. The docs are littered with formerly-free features that are now paid. At a minimum, scrub your website so you don't look like such a tool.. Especially when the install directions are a blog post that pimps all those "free" features.

I don't like relying on an "open source" project that has shown they will take features away if we need them.

And I don't know why this still needs saying: **AUTHENTICATION IS NOT A PAID ADD-ON. IT IS A CORE FEATURE.** We are not in 1998 anymore. Don't demand "enterprise" pricing for authentication. That is #antisecurity

@xavier @nomeata #AWS #Lambda are based on a lightweight #AmazonLinux image and then #Layers added on top of that. Maybe those are just #Amazon terms for what is essentially the same as #Docker?

How does #OpenFaas do it?

Uploaded my HMAC-a-tron #openfaas container to my Docker Hub account. I should probably make the error output more helpful.

Got external scripts working in Web Index Bot.

I have to say it was a good day.

So...

I know it sounds dumb to post this, but I'm stupidly happy at this moment. I just built a chinzy little magic 8-ball function running on top of #openfaas, built the container, and deployed it in about two minutes flat.

I don't think I've ever stood up anything this fast before.

It's weirdly satisfying to deploy some proof-of-concept functions I built yesterday to my #openfaas instance.

Teaching myself #docker because I want to use #openfaas.

Played more with #openfaas tonight. I like it. I think I'm going to be writing a lot of agents using it...
