Knative and Solo.io Gloo

Knative is talked about a great deal, especially around how its capabilities can help provide more standard building blocks on top of Kubernetes for building microservices and serverless like services, e.g., scale to zero, and scale on demand. Knative high level has three capability areas: building, serving, and eventing. This post will provide some examples around Knative Build and Knative Serving with Solo.io Gloo.

Knative Serving initially included all of Istio only to use a small fraction of its capabilities around Kubernetes cluster ingress. Recently the Knative team added Gloo as an alternative to Istio. More details are available in Gloo, Knative and the future of Serverless and Gloo, by Solo.io, is the first alternative to Istio on Knative.
