“Fission was created to provide a simpler, easier way for developers to accelerate time to value with Kubernetes. Our goal is to help developers produce quality serverless code, and provide Ops teams with the utmost confidence to run serverless applications in production,” said Soam Vasani, creator of Fission at Platform9. “Serverless allows developers to move faster and be more productive. The latest release of Fission focuses on accelerating feedback loops and lowering deployment risk, to ensure that teams can not only move fast, but also safely, and at scale.”

The company, which cut its teeth selling remotely-managed OpenStack cloud infrastructure for customers, also sells managed Kubernetes deployments and produces Fission.io, an open-source, Kubernetes-native serverless framework. The new update to Fission, announced today, adds several functions to make the deployment and testing of serverless functions easier.

The open source tool, inspired by kubeadm, is the first to provide the Kubernetes community a simple command-line experience to deploy and manage secure etcd clusters anywhere – on-premises or in the cloud – with built-in support for recovery and scalability

Platform9 pushed its etcdadm support tool out into the open source community via GitHub in an effort to generate momentum behind automating the configuration, deployment, and management of etcd clusters used by Kubernetes to store control plane information. Those tasks are currently either part of more broadly-focused efforts put on the shoulders of a Kubernetes user, or cobbled together by developers.
