Automation of FaaS Serverless Frameworks OpenFaaS and OpenWhisk in Private Cloud

A methodology for cloud-native development called serverless facilitates the creation and execution of programmes by developers without worrying about maintaining servers. As no automation is available to implement FaaS serverless frameworks in private clouds and manual implementation is a tedious job. If the same tasks are performed manually, there is a greater risk of human error as well as an increase in cognitive strain that can take up to 4-5 hours for installation and configuration. Therefore, we are going to provide a command line tool to automate the process to implement FaaS serverless frameworks Open-FaaS and OpenWhisk in private clouds, which is easy to configure and straight forward to use. The proposed tool has the potential to save significant time and cost for customers compared to hiring a DevOps engineer to manually perform the installation and configuration. Additionally, the potential revenue generated from the tool’s use in the financial industry alone suggests a promising market for this type of automation tool. Overall, this paper highlights the usefulness and importance of automation in facilitating the adoption and implementation of serverless architecture in private clouds.
