Description
Apache OpenWhisk is a distributed, open-source Serverless platform designed to execute functions (fx) in response to various events, scaling seamlessly according to demand. By utilizing Docker containers, OpenWhisk takes care of the underlying infrastructure and server management, allowing developers to concentrate on creating innovative and efficient applications. The platform features a programming model where developers can implement functional logic (termed Actions) in any of the supported programming languages, which can be scheduled dynamically and executed in reaction to relevant events triggered by external sources (Feeds) or through HTTP requests. Additionally, OpenWhisk comes with a REST API-based Command Line Interface (CLI) and various tools to facilitate service packaging, cataloging, and deployment options for popular container frameworks. As a result of its container-based architecture, Apache OpenWhisk is compatible with numerous deployment strategies, whether locally or in cloud environments, giving developers the flexibility they need. The versatility of OpenWhisk also enables it to integrate with a wide range of services, enhancing its utility in modern application development.
Description
NVIDIA Cloud Functions (NVCF) is a serverless API tailored for deploying and managing AI tasks on GPUs, ensuring security, scalability, and dependable performance. It accommodates various access methods, including HTTP polling, HTTP streaming, and gRPC protocols, for interacting with workloads. Primarily, Cloud Functions is optimized for brief, preemptable tasks such as inferencing and model fine-tuning. Users can choose between two types of functions: "Container" and "Helm Chart," enabling them to customize functions according to their specific needs. Since workloads are transient and preemptable, it is crucial for users to save their progress diligently. Additionally, models, containers, helm charts, and other essential resources are stored and retrieved from the NGC Private Registry. To begin utilizing NVCF, users can refer to the quickstart guide for functions, which outlines a comprehensive workflow for establishing and launching a container-based function utilizing the fastapi_echo_sample container. This resource not only highlights the ease of setup but also encourages users to explore the full potential of NVIDIA’s serverless infrastructure.
