Does vSwarm support Firecracker-Containerd #348
-
|
Hi, I noticed that vSwarm only supports applications deployed and invoked by Knative, is that true? Do we have a feature to run those functions via Firecracker-containerd? It's interesting to see how real-world FaaS applications perform snapshots. Or do you have any advise to walk around this? Thanks! |

@DanielLee343 yes, all vHive runtimes are supported (but only container-based setting is tested in CI). However, to use Firecracker, you need to modify YAML files, which is the limitation we are currently working on.

Aside YAML files, I am assuming function files and tracing, storage and util files need to be modified too since they take environment variables as well. Or is there some way to pass env variables into the guest image? Is there any working function image example for Firecracker now? |
