OpenLambda

Project Description

OpenLambda is an open-source Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform written in Go and Python. FaaS platforms allow developers to write small functions that are executed in isolated environments in response to events like HTTP requests or file changes.

Interns help write code to improve OpenLambda by implementing a richer set of function triggers or focusing on making it easily deployable as a distributed system on a cluster of machines.
