Project description

Kubesmarts is web tooling for authoring and deploying serverless workflows (and potentially other assets types) in a cloud environment, used to build applications by orchestrating services and/or events. Users define their serverless workflows using YAML/JSON format (according to the CNCF Serverless Workflow specification) and can then deploy these workflows into the cloud directly. Behind the scenes, the service is built on the cloud and deployed, so they can access it for testing.

Requirements:
The frontend is a pure client side web application that will send the assets to the backend when they are ready to be deployed.
The frontend would either directly try to trigger builds and deployment on the OpenShift namespace, or leverage an Operator to manage that.

If the OpenShift environment would support OpenShift Serverless, we could take advantage of that by deploying the services as knative services and leverage knative eventing.

We would also like to register observability to collect usage data and potentially run some small demo services that could be used in the workflows.

Hey @krisv and Kubesmarts, welcome! Hm, Interesting project name. I'm just curious, did you ever run into any issues with the namespace name?

While I don't think it's an issue for us, please be aware that the kube prefix may be troubling sometimes.

For example in the Openshift Console or in Kiali, the default filters exclude namespaces with kube- prefix.
