Microservice

Motivation of Functions Functions as a Service are a new paradigm for application composition and deployment. Functions are a smaller deployable unit than microservices and especially traditional monoliths. Project Riff is a new Pivotal project that runs functions in a cloud environment like Pivotal Container Services (Kubernetes). Lets get started by setting up a new Riff environment and then creating some functions. Preparing the environment minikube is the tool that we’ll use to run Kubernetes locally.
