By now most people are familiar with what it means to be a serverless platform, features such as scale-to-zero, auto-scaling and source-to-build. And Knative certainly does all of that. But, by calling Knative a Serverless platform are we implying that PaaS or CaaS apps shouldn't share some of these same characteristics? I don't think so - so let's stop this charade! In this talk we'll go over what Knative is, and how we really should look at it as a new way to deploy any app to Kubernetes - not just functions.

Developers should focus on writing code, not managing infrastructure. With Knative we take a huge step forward towards abstracting the complexities of Kubernetes w/o giving up the advanced features we all want.
