OpenWhisk

OpenWhisk is an open-source platform that allows developers to run small pieces of code, called functions, in response to events, without needing to manage servers. Think of it as a system where you can set up triggers—like a new email arriving or a file being uploaded—that automatically run specific tasks. It helps build scalable, event-driven applications efficiently, handling everything behind the scenes so developers can focus on writing their code. OpenWhisk is part of the "serverless" computing movement, making application development faster and more flexible.
