5 years ago The core of Pivotal Build Service is now open sourced as kpack. riff will depend on kpack and not the commercial offering.

Knative Build is at the end of its life and was not included in the Knative 0.8 release train. This means we can't update the use the Knative Serving 0.8 types until we replace Knative Build. kpack fits our minimal needs while also supporting continuous builds. As the base image, builder or source code is updated. Continuous builds fits with the intended lifecycle of the Application and Function resources where new images are reflected in the status.
