In this lab you will explore serverless computing using Oracle Functions.
Oracle Functions is built on the open source Fn Project and so much of the development experience is exactly the same so any experience you have with Fn will be 100% applicable. The key differences are that Oracle Functions is a managed service so there's no need to start and manage an Fn server (it's truly serverless!) and being a cloud service Oracle Functions is integrated with the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Idenity and Acess Management (IAM), Networking, Events and other services.
This tutorial will show you how to setup your functions development environment and then guide you through a series of labs focusing on different topics including:
- Function Basics
- Java Functions and Unit testing
- Troubleshooting Functions
- Automatically invoking functions with OCI Events service
- Functions clients including the OCI SDK
- Calling functions using oci-curl
- Customizing the function execution environment
Step one is getting your environment setup.
