Hands-on Serverless with OpenFaaS and Python

David Boyne

OpenFaaS Makes Serverless Functions Simple with any programming language through the use of Docker containers. The project can be hosted on any cloud, or on your own hardware - even your laptop. Learn how to build Serverless functions with OpenFaaS and Python in this self-paced workshop lead by the community behind project.
Start by deploying OpenFaaS to your laptops with Docker for Mac or Windows and then learn how to build, deploy and invoke serverless functions in Python.
Topics will include: managing dependencies with pip, dealing with API tokens through secure secrets, monitoring functions with Prometheus, invoking functions asynchronously and chaining functions together to create applications.
We’ll finish by building a GitHub bot that puts all of what we’ve learnt together into a single application. The issue-bot will respond to issues raised by analysing the text and deciding whether to label them positive or for review.
We will be putting on breakfast and lunch provided from our sponser comparethemarket.com
