This document discusses running containerized applications on modern serverless platforms like Cloud Run and Knative. It provides an overview of serverless computing and how platforms like Cloud Run and Knative allow developers to run existing containerized applications serverless through features like auto-scaling and pay-per-use models. It also discusses how platforms like Cloud Run can be used to modernize existing applications and move them to serverless without rewriting code, as well as how Knative allows portability between platforms and providers through its open-source APIs.
