Serverless and Event-driven Applications with Cloud Foundry and OpenWhisk
summary
OpenWhisk is an event→action platform that instantly deploys short-lived functions on demand, integrating with Cloud Foundry/Bluemix, Cloudant, Docker, Kafka/Rabbit and Watson services. Demo shows mobile IoT trigger (phone shake) invoking actions in 600–700 ms (some as low as 6 ms), so billing targets only execution time and not idle VMs. Rules map triggers to actions, actions run in many languages or as containers, and the system auto-scales and terminates resources.
