Yes, there are plans for traffic splitting. Currently Cloud Run only supports the `runLatest` mode of the Knative Serving spec (https://github.com/knative/serving/blob/master/docs/spec/spe...) but we're working on other modes (e.g. `release`) which would allow for traffic splits.

You're welcome, thanks for commenting. Auto DevOps can probably benefit from Knative in two ways. Use Knative build https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/build/builder-co... for building images. And use Knative serving https://github.com/knative/serving to run review apps that don't use resources when not in use https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/3585#note_900...

> Can I run functions written on any platform on Knative? Java? .net core? Js? Anything that meets the Container Runtime Contract[0] should work. > What about startup times? How do they compare to other solutions? Startup times need a lot more work. Knative has a number of moving pieces which are contributing delay to startup time and they're being discussed or attacked by various groups. Some of this work will probably require changes to be contributed upstream to Kubernetes and Istio. [0] https://github.com/knative/serving/blob/5b8542fb58044834d50f...

Each distinct container/app/function scales independently. Billing models do in fact affect our design discussions and we're still kicking the questions around[0][1]. [0] https://github.com/knative/serving/issues/895 [1] https://github.com/knative/serving/issues/848

Is this something like what you're looking for? https://github.com/knative/serving/blob/master/docs/spec/ove... Or a little higher-level: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1CbwVC7W2JaSxRyltU8CS... There are a lot of technical docs in the individual repositories. You can get started, for example, with the serving docs under: https://github.com/knative/serving/tree/master/docs Same for the other repos, like build and eventing. Thanks for asking!

Even better! Knative will allow you to even scale your containers out-of-band if you know that something BIG will happen. See https://github.com/knative/serving/issues/1656 for the discussion.
