Function Pod
Place to load and execute the user function
Function Pod serves HTTP requests received from the clients. It consists of two containers:
- Fetcher
- Environment Container
Fetcher
Fetcher is responsible to pull deployment archive from the StorageSvc and verify the checksum of file to ensure the integrity of file.
Environment Container
Environment Container runs user-defined functions and is language-specific. Each environment container must contain an HTTP server and a loader for functions.
