Overview

KNIX MicroFunctions is an open source serverless computing platform for Knative as well as bare metal or virtual machine-based environments. It combines container-based resource isolation with a light-weight process-based execution model that significantly improves resource efficiency and decreases the function startup overhead.

Compared with existing serverless computing platforms, KNIX MicroFunctions has the following advantages:

  • Low function startup latency & high resource efficiency
  • Fast locality-aware storage access
  • Python and Java function runtimes
  • Workflow support and compatibility with Amazon States Language (ASL)
  • Support for long-running functions for continuous data processing applications
  • Powerful web UI, SDK and CLI for effective serverless application development
