Here are some of the top tweets about Serverless and OpenFaaS from Day 1 at Dockercon hosted in San Francisco. Docker Inc’s CEO Steve Singh opened the event and event mentioned both the Raspberry Pi and Serverless community too.<\/p>\n

Holberton School fireside chat<\/h2>\n
After having met some students back in April at DevNet Create I started mentoring one of them and keeping in touch with the others. It was great to hear that some students won tickets to Dockercon in a Hackathon using OpenFaaS as part of their winning entry<\/a>.<\/p>\n
During the fireside chat the students I’d met in May interviewed me about my background in Computer Science, my new role leading Open Source in the community and for tips on public speaking.<\/p>\n
Really enjoyed sharing with @holbertonschool<\/a> this week about OSS, career and public speaking pic.twitter.com\/4so3myGv8l<\/a><\/p>\n

OpenFaaS + GitOps<\/h2>\n
The night before the event I spoke with Stefan Prodan at the Weaveworks User Group about GitOps with Functions. When you combine GitOps and Serverless Functions you get something that looks a lot like OpenFaaS Cloud which we open-sourced in November last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n
How does @OpenFaaS<\/a> cloud work? How about a demo from Silicon Valley? Demo code by @mccabejohn<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/PU85ZWDmAv<\/a><\/p>\n

I gave a demo with my mobile phone and OpenFaaS Cloud, we categorized two different images of a hotdog to show Silicon Valley’s “Hotdog, not hotdog” episode. Thanks to John Mccabe for working on this demo<\/a>.<\/p>\n
When I was speaking to a Director of Platform Engineering at a large forward-thinking bank I was told that in their perspective infrastructure is cheap compared to engineering salaries. With OpenFaaS Cloud and GitOps we make it even easier for the developer and operations team to build and deploy serverless functions at scale on any cloud.<\/p>\n

Contribute and Collaborate Track<\/h2>\n
Here are some highlights from the Contribute and Collaborate Track where I gave a talk on The State of OpenFaaS.<\/p>\n
With OpenFaaS you can: iterate faster, build your own platform, use any language, own your data, unlock your community. Great introduction from @alexellisuk<\/a> #DockerCon<\/a><\/p>\n

Here I am with Idit Levine from Solo.io and Stefan Prodan from Weaveworks who is also a core contributor to OpenFaaS.<\/p>\n
All set to talk about serverless functions made simple in the collaborate and communicate track with @stefanprodan<\/a> @Idit_Levine<\/a> and @alexellisuk<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/nTv6yP9Qvh<\/a><\/p>\n

The global group of contributors and influencers is growing and I think it’s important to state that OpenFaaS is built by community for the Open Source Community – that means, for you.<\/p>\n
Thanks to @alexellisuk<\/a> for the call out to @monadic<\/a> and @stefanprodan<\/a> for our support for #OpenFaaS<\/a>
\nHappy to help!
