Awesome! While I was at AWS Summit in NY, I asked a round circle of AWS ECS/EKS users (Container orchestration products) about thoughts on a Docker container service that could execute like a FaaS product and there seemed to be none anyone knew of. I have a portion of a legacy application that's used infrequently and too costly to decompose but works fine Dockerized.

Looking forward to using your product!



I'm amazed no one knew of one. Off the top of my head, services which let you run docker containers without dealing with any servers yourself:

1. AWS Fargate

2. Joyent Triton (which was as simple as DOCKER_HOST=<joyent-ip> docker run back in 2015)

3. hyper.sh (available since 2016 I think?)

4. OpenFaaS cloud (though you have to go through a couple more steps, you can bring a custom docker image as your 'function').

5. A metric ton of hosted kubernetes offerings


Also ACI (Azure Container Instances)


Maybe I didn't form the question correctly. Appreciate the list of services!
