Apache OpenWhisk
Apache OpenWhisk is an open source, distributed Serverless platform that executes functions (fx) in response to events at any scale. OpenWhisk manages the infrastructure, servers and scaling using Docker containers so you can focus on building amazing and efficient applications. The OpenWhisk platform supports a programming model in which developers write functional logic (called Actions), in any supported programming language, that can be dynamically scheduled and run in response to associated events (via Triggers) from external sources (Feeds) or from HTTP requests. The project includes a REST API-based Command Line Interface (CLI) along with other tooling to support packaging, catalog services and many popular container deployment options. Since Apache OpenWhisk builds its components using containers it easily supports many deployment options both locally and within Cloud infrastructures. Options include many of today's popular Container frameworks.

IBM Cloud Functions
Based on Apache OpenWhisk, IBM Cloud Functions is a polyglot functions-as-a-service (FaaS) programming platform for developing lightweight code that scalably executes on demand. IBM Cloud Functions offers access to the Apache OpenWhisk ecosystem, where anyone can contribute code. IBM Cloud Functions enables developers to build apps with action sequences that execute in response to events. IBM Cloud Functions makes cognitive analysis of application data inherent to your workflows. Costs increase only as you construct more OpenWhisk-intensive solutions or need to support larger workloads.

Google Flow
Google Flow is an AI creative studio built with Google’s advanced generative models for planning, creating, and refining visual projects. The platform helps creatives generate images and videos from text, image, video, and reference inputs using models such as Gemini Omni, Gemini Omni Flash, Nano Banana Pro, and Veo 3.1. Google Flow includes an intelligent creative agent that understands project context and helps users explore ideas, iterate concepts, and stay in the creative flow. Users can create high-fidelity images and videos, edit assets with natural language, adjust individual elements, and scale changes across a project. The platform also includes tools for animated text overlays, video resizing, image editing, storyboarding, shader effects, mockups, sketch rendering, character development, and post-processing effects. Google Flow helps creators move from idea to execution with a flexible workspace for AI-assisted video, image, and creative production.
