FaaS – Serverless functions framework for Docker

In plain words

FaaS is a serverless functions framework designed for Docker environments. It enables developers to deploy and manage functions without managing underlying infrastructure. The framework allows functions to be containerized and executed on demand. FaaS is intended for developers who want to build event-driven applications or microservices using a serverless architecture. It simplifies function deployment by leveraging Docker's containerization capabilities.
