If Knative is more self-hosted FaaS than PaaS, that explains the core use case for Apollo; a traditional 12-Factor App PaaS for Kubernetes/Docker-Swarm. Knative supports a Serving Spec for routing (like AWS API Gateway) but doesn't seem to have buildpacks for 12-Factor App frameworks, as far as I can see.

Apex Up [1] deploys web apps on top of AWS Lambda using Amazon's API Gateway as the RESTful routing proxy. Maybe something like Apex Up is required to transform Knative into a PaaS for historical 12-Factor App frameworks. ZEIT Now 2.0 did the same thing for Serverless (Cloudflare Workers only?) but the company has been renamed Vercel and has pivoted around Next.js.

AWS now also provides native support for deploying 'regular' web apps using lambda + API gateway. I've been using this for my hobby projects - https://github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy
