Nuclio: Serverless for Real-Time and Data-Driven Applications

nuclio is using a real-time arch (no context switch, zero copy, no Ser/Des, parallelism, .. ) Go function serves 400K events/sec/proc, Py does 70K events/sec/proc, this is faster than running your own function with standard HTTP serving on a bare-metal server.

for comparison most serverless frameworks do 1-5k events/sec and up to 100x higher latency.

My point is that - as described - it is a dumb comparison.

> open source serverless platform which is faster than bare-metal code

does't make sense. It eventually has to run on top of bare metal (via hypervisor or directly), so claiming that something that eventually runs on top of bare metal is "faster than bare metal" doesn't make sense at all.
