## faas - Functions As A Service
## Functions As A Service (faas)
FaaS is a platform for building serverless functions on Docker Swarm Mode with first class metrics. Any UNIX process can be packaged as a function in FaaS enabling you to consume a range of web events without repetitive boiler-plate coding.
## Highlights:
* Ease of use through UI portal
* Setup a working environment with one script
* Portable - runs on any hardware
* Baked-in Prometheus metrics
* Any container can be a function
* Auto-scales as demand increases
## Concept
* Each container has a watchdog process that hosts a web server allowing a JSON post request to be forwarded to a desired process via STDIN. The respose is sent to the caller via STDOUT.
