The meteoric rise of chatbots, and proof in the last year that this rise is not a fad, has given end users a natural way to engage with business via a conversational user interface and has given brands new purpose in providing better customer service. As the brand-customer relationship has grown and has become even more intertwined, enterprises are beginning to see success with the deployment of these bots. For example, Bank of America released Erica – a chatbot for consumer...

Logging is one of the things that’s extremely important to do well, especially in the (micro)services and functions world where you have to track what’s happening across hundreds of services and functions. In this post, I’ll briefly look at how to collect logs from your Fn functions and send them to an external log aggregator (in our case, this will be Papertrail). Prerequisites · Fn CLI · Fn Server (you can use fn start command to bring up a local server) Create a Simple Go...

Ideally, an Fn function should be “hot”. With a hot function, the function container is started and kept alive to process a series of function invocations. Hot functions are great because there’s a cost to starting a container — the Fn server has to pull the image from a repository if the image isn’t cached locally, start the container, and typically boot the language runtime inside the container before it can even start handling function calls. With a hot function you only...

The last article First steps in serverless with fnproject.io marked the start of my journey into serverless computing. My first proof of concept in this area was quite promising so I have decided to continue on this path and do a couple more experiments. I have a set of use cases in mind where serverless architectures might be beneficial for certain integration scenarios that include Systems, People and Developers. Overview In this article I’m going to explore the use of...

In the recent months I’m reading a lot about FaaS and Serverless as yet another way to build software systems and I must say I have become quite enthusiastic about it. In fact much more enthusiastic than with micro services when they were considered the greatest thing on earth for development for the Cloud. Not that Serverless doesn’t have any caveats but it seems to fit the idea of Cloud as an utility so much more than having tons of Microservices up and running for the...

What if we told you that you don’t have to create microservices with Java EE anymore? Meet Project Helidon, a set of Java libraries for writing microservices. This new project from Oracle currently supports two programming models: Helidon MP and SE. Let’s have a closer look at it! If you need an easier way to build microservices, you should give Project Helidon a try. Although Oracle has just open sourced this set of Java libraries, the project itself is not new, as Dmitry...

Oracle have announced another Open Source project called Helidon (Helidon.io) as a microservices platform built on top of Netty (which is built around a contemporary async model). If you look at the literature you’ll note two flavours one called SE which aligns to the programming characteristics or Node.js – asynchronous. The other is MP which aligns to the rapidly evolving J2EE MicroProfile which essentially follows a coding style along the lines of J2EE annotations. Whilst...
