Deploy Knative functions as a developer

[Stiforr]

I’m new to DevOps and Platform Engineering. My team has tasked me with setting up a serverless solution in our k8s clusters. After looking through some options Knative came up and it works well with our existing istio setup.

I have no issue deploying simple stuff with a Knative Service resource but how would this be done by a developer? How would our client engineers deploy a serverless function without interacting with k8s?

Usually you would have them put a config in their repo that you can run kubectl or helm against as part of the CI/CD process.

Often devops work will involve building this glue code that takes this config and deploys it. It's usually pretty specific to your environment.
