OpenFaaS VS OpenWhisk

Serverless functions are now offered by many cloud providers, as well as having options like OpenFaaS, Knative, Apache's Openwhisk and more from the open source community that run in environments ranging from one server all the way up to globally replicated private clusters.

OpenFaaS

Did you consider running knative or openfaas? https://github.com/openfaas/faas

Anyone knows other alternatives for Azure Functions, but for DIY hosting? ( eg. OpenFaas - https://www.openfaas.com/ )

Maybe OpenFaaS with grafana and slack notifications for non-200 responses?

By the way, if your organization is leveraging EKS as a platform and your DevOps team is willing to enable this operator, there's an exciting tool called OpenFaaS. Essentially, it enables you to host your Lambda functions on your own infrastructure instead of relying on the public cloud provider.

This is where I see K8S coming in – teachers can provide dev deployments that are setup for students to learn. Teachers can also provide containers that run automated tests against the student containers for assessment! Plus, we can smooth over some of the git workflow stuff for the ripest of beginners; we can integrate with github to sync their work on our platform to repositories on their github account, so that they can really take ownership of the work they do on the platform. Last, students can graduate their work from development into production very easily, since we can take the base images + student diffs, build a new "prod" image for the student. We can run students' prod work on "serverless" K8S frameworks like fission or OpenFaas to be able to host many low-traffic "production" apps at the same time.

The serverless functions with Digital Ocean are based on Apache Open Whisk, so the service has additional name space, which need to go into the URL.

The two biggest options are OpenWhisk and OpenFaas. Check out /r/serverless for more options. I'm experimenting currently with OpenFaas as it's the lighter weigh to of the two.

If you meant lambda for cloud functions provided by Amazon then this is open source and free, as long as you host it yourself: https://openwhisk.apache.org/

There are so many of them in big data, e.g. Kafka, Spark, Flink, Delta, Snowplow, Finagle, Deequ, CMAK, OpenWhisk, Snowflake, TheHive, TVM-VTA, etc.

The foundation is Apache OpenWhisk https://github.com/apache/openwhisk with DO specific customization to work with managed databased, log shipping, and other DO specific capabilities. The closest programming model is AWS Lambda in terms of the semantics and execution model.
