Introducing CloudEvents 0.1 – An open effort by Google, Microsoft, IBM and more

What’s most frustrating is event-driven design and serverless technologies enable developers to reach unprecedented levels of productivity, yet our tooling isn’t designed to help us manage this new level of output. We can each provision a thousand AWS Lambda functions right now, which will scale massively and cost nothing until they’re executed. This is incredible power, but I don’t believe we are ready to reason about this new level of output.

That is, until we have better tools. This is a problem which CloudEvents can solve. Consistent event metadata creates a stable foundation on top of which we can build better tools for developing, running and operating serverless & event-driven architectures.

Shipping code updates to the Facebook app, which is used every day by hundreds of millions of people, requires extensive testing to ensure stability and performance. At Facebook’s scale, this process requires checking hundreds of important interactions across numerous types of devices and operating systems for both correctness and speed. Traditionally, this has largely been a manual test design process, during which engineers devote time and resources to designing test cases.
