Development professionals requiring a solution to run their code anywhere and reduce boilerplate code
About OpenFaaS
Serverless functions, made simple. OpenFaaS® makes it simple to deploy both functions and existing code to Kubernetes. Avoid lock-in through the use of Docker. Run-on any public or private cloud. Build both microservices & functions in any language. Legacy code and binaries. Auto-scale for demand or to zero when idle. Bring your laptop, your own on-prem hardware, or create a cluster in the cloud. Let Kubernetes do the heavy lifting enabling you to build a scalable, fault-tolerant event-driven serverless platform for your applications. You can try out OpenFaaS in 60 seconds or write and deploy your first Python function in around 10-15 minutes. From there you can take the OpenFaaS workshop, a series of tried-and-tested self-paced labs which teach you everything you need to know about functions, and more. An ecosystem for sharing, reusing, and collaborating on functions. Reduce boilerplate code, and share code in the templates store.
