Why OpenFaaS?
OpenFaaS was created by Alex Ellis in 2016 as an open-source project with three core values: to be developer-friendly, easy to operate and centered around community.
Today, teams both small and large run OpenFaaS in production because it’s cloud agnostic, meaning you can run your code on multiple clouds without having to re-write. Others turn to OpenFaaS because it can offer things that cloud functions cannot like: long timeouts, extensive language support, tight integration with Kubernetes and a superior developer experience.
Did you know that the project has no external funding? Most all end-user companies only consume Alex’s work without giving back or supporting it financially.
When you become a sponsor on GitHub:
- Instead of freeloading, you contribute to the project's success
- You show that you value the time, skills and expertise required to keep your software in production
- You build goodwill as you show up as a Sponsor on Issues and Pull Requests
After all, do you want Alex to continue to be in the business of making serverless portable and accessible across any cloud? We’ll leave you with that thought.
How else can you support OpenFaaS?
Alex founded OpenFaaS Ltd to offer commercial support and a production-ready distribution of the project called OpenFaaS Pro.
18 sponsors are funding openfaas’s work.
