faasd is OpenFaaS reimagined but without the cost and complexity of Kubernetes. It runs on a single host with very modest requirements, making it fast and easy to manage. Under the hood it uses containers and Container Networking Interface (CNI) along with the same core OpenFaaS components from the main project. To deploy microservices and functions that you can update and monitor remotely. When you don't have the bandwidth to learn or manage Kubernetes. To deploy embedded apps in IoT and edge use-cases. To distribute applications to a customer or client. You have a cost sensitive project - run faasd on a 1GB VM for 5-10 USD / mo or on your Raspberry Pi. When you just need a few functions or microservices, without the cost of a cluster.

Features

  • faasd is a static Golang binary
  • Uses the same core components and ecosystem of OpenFaaS
  • Uses containerd for its runtime and CNI for networking
  • Multi-arch, so works on Intel x86_64 and ARM out the box
  • Can run almost any other stateful container through its docker-compose.yaml file
  • It's easy to manage so you can set it up and leave it alone to run your functions
