Learn FISSION with Real Code Examples
Updated Nov 25, 2025
Practical Examples
REST API endpoint responding to HTTP requests
Scheduled cleanup or batch jobs via cron
Image processing pipeline triggered by cloud storage events
Data transformation or ETL pipelines
IoT event processing with Kafka triggers
Troubleshooting
Check Fission controller and router logs
Ensure function environment is correctly configured
Verify trigger connectivity and permissions
Monitor pool manager for pod availability
Use `kubectl` to debug function pods
Testing Guide
Use `fission fn test` for local testing
Test HTTP triggers via curl or Postman
Simulate cron or MQ events
Monitor logs via `kubectl logs`
Automate tests with CI/CD
Deployment Options
Deploy functions directly to Kubernetes via Fission CLI
Use Helm charts for cluster deployment
Combine with CI/CD pipelines for automated releases
Deploy in cloud-managed Kubernetes (EKS, GKE, AKS)
Integrate with cloud storage or event systems for triggers
Tools Ecosystem
Fission CLI
kubectl for Kubernetes management
Helm charts for deployment
