Serverless Functions, Made Simple.
OpenFaaS® makes it simple to deploy both functions and existing code to Kubernetes
Anywhere
Avoid lock-in through the use of Docker. Run on any public or private cloud.
Any code
Build both microservices & functions in any language. Legacy code and binaries.
Any scale
Auto-scale for demand or to zero when idle.
Understand the value of Serverless
In Serverless For Everyone Else, you'll gain a working knowledge of the value and use-cases of serverless functions. You'll then build your own with Node.js and learn how to secure and monitor them.
Run your code anywhere with the same unified experience.
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.
Functions Store
An ecosystem for sharing, reusing and collaborating on functions
Templating system
Reduce boilerplate code, share code in the templates store
Functions or Microservices
Deploy existing microservices using Express.js, Sinatra, ASP.NET Core or simplify with functions.
Simple, powerful functions from anywhere.
Whether you want to use Go, Java, Python, C#, Ruby - Express.js, Django, ASP.NET Core, even binaries like ffmpeg, ImageMagick, or anything else. We have you covered with the template store.
