The Apache OpenWhisk Incubator project offers a truly open, highly scalable, performant distributed Serverless platform leveraging other open technologies along with a robust programming model, catalog of service and event provider integrations and developer tooling.  Specifically, every architectural component service of the OpenWhisk platform (e.g., Controller, Invokers, Messaging, Router, Catalog, API Gateway, etc.) all is designed to be run and scaled as a Docker container. In addition, OpenWhisk uniquely leverages aspects of Docker engine to manage, load balance and scale supported OpenWhisk runtime environments (e.g., JavaScript, Python, Swift, Java, etc.), includingNodeJS, Go, Java, Scala, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Swift as well as recent additions for Ballerina, .NET and Rust that run Serverless functional code within Invoker compute instances, using Docker containers.
