Post with OpenFaaS R templates

[psolymos]

Description

Added blog post, associated images, and author bio to the repo.

Motivation and Context

In this post I show how to use the R templates for OpenFaaS. Build a serverless function that consumes data from an external API, fits exponential smoothing model, and makes a forecast.

Yes

Yes, the function has been deployed and tested on a production OprnFaaS k8s cluster.
