Serverless has been a hot topic in the cloud computing field in recent years. It has been sought after by many people for its advantages such as extreme flexibility, pay-as-you-go, cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and various cloud vendors are also constantly deploying in the serverless field. But with the development of time, some serious problems have also been exposed in the serverless field, such as serious lock-in by vendors, lack of suitable developer tools, and difficulty in debugging programs. For this reason, Serverless Devs came into being.
Serverless Devs is an open source project in the serverless field initiated by Alibaba. Its purpose is to contribute an open source, open and vendor-free serverless developer tool with developers. It is hoped that this tool can be used by developers to develop serverless applications. The life cycle plays a role, allowing developers to play Serverless like using a mobile phone.
This year, Serverless Devs joined a series of university open source activities supported by the "Open Source Software Supply Chain Lighting Program" of the Institute of Software of the Chinese Academy of Sciences-Summer 2021. This is an open-source project development activity hosted by the Institute of Software of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the openEuler community specifically for college students. It aims to encourage school students to actively participate in the development and maintenance of open source software and promote the vigorous development of excellent open source communities.
In this event, you will not only get the opportunity to learn and communicate with top Serverless tutors, but students who pass the review will also receive a generous bonus. Students are welcome to actively register and apply:
1. How the event works
- The main roles of event participants are students, communities and mentors.
- The community provides a list and description of the project, and arranges a mentor corresponding to the project.
- Students freely choose projects, communicate with community mentors to realize plans and write project plans. The selected students will complete the development work as planned under the guidance of the community mentor and contribute the results to the community. According to the difficulty and completion of the project, participants will receive project bonuses issued by the organizer.
2. List of projects
In the summer of open source, we submitted a total of 7 projects:
Serverless Devs now includes two parts: the main warehouse and the component library. For example, Serverless Devs repo: https://github.com/serverless-devs In this repo, since the Serverless Devs project is under development, the test cases are currently not perfect. So the job of this project is to write test cases for this project. Mainly include: https://github.com/serverless-devs and https://github.com/devsapp .
The serverless architecture is very new and hot, and it has attracted many people's attention, but there are still some points that it has been complained about, such as complex debugging and complex installation dependencies. Therefore, through the project to carry out debugging and dependent installation related research, and participate in the open source project to provide industry solutions.
Serverless architecture is developing very fast, but there are also many problems, such as environment division (development environment, online environment, test environment), etc. It is hoped that through this project, an environment division scheme can be provided at the tool chain level and realized into Components of Serverless Devs.
Serverless devs is a serverless developer tool that has no vendor lock-in. It currently supports serverless products from many cloud vendors such as Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, and AWS. It is hoped that this project can further expand the components of cloud vendors.
The serverless architecture is known as the next decade of cloud computing, and it is regarded by many front-end engineers as a "turning point for changing fate". Through the serverless architecture, "the front-end is no longer a pure front-end". Through the serverless architecture, "everyone All are full-stack engineers", so what does the collision between the serverless architecture and the front-end look like? I hope that through this project, more students can have a deeper understanding of Serverless and a deeper understanding of Serverless architecture. At the same time, I hope that they can further explore the combination of Serverless architecture and front-end and do some interesting things. !
Serverless architecture is a relatively new topic, and the tool chain of the serverless architecture is more of a concern. Then, what is the difference between the tool chain of the serverless architecture and traditional tools such as K8S and some monitoring and warning tools? What problems should be paid more attention to with the tools of the serverless architecture? What does it look like? At present, Serverless Devs, as an open source project of Serverless tool chain, includes Serverless CLI, Serverless Desktop, Serverless Cloud, Serverless Hub, Serverless Registry, etc. So how are these modules divided and what are the functions? Through this project, I hope everyone can have a certain understanding of Serverless, have a certain ability to think independently of Serverles as an architecture tool chain, and participate in the innovation of the Serverless architecture tool chain.
Serverless architecture is a relatively new technology, and it is also a hot technology at present. With the continuous development of time, it has been valued by more people and has become the first choice for more enterprise technology selection. Although the serverless architecture has achieved cost reduction and efficiency improvement to a certain extent, it may produce more delicate resources. The management of these resources, continuous integration/release, has gradually become a more important focus, so this project will be The exploration of Serverless CI/CD mainly includes what CI/CD under the serverless architecture looks like, whether serverless itself can be used as CI/CD, and what does the serverless architecture tool chain and CI/CD look like when combined.
