One solution to deploy serverless workloads everywhere - Serverless Container Framework (SCF) is a unified development and deployment experience for containers on serverless platforms.

The value of SCF lies in its Heroku-like experience for deploying containers on serverless platforms, without vendor lock-in. Deploy to any container-supporting serverless platform. While PaaS providers charge hefty markups based on compute usage, SCF charges only a fixed cost per each container you deploy. Even better, SCF's license is free for every developer/organization making less than $2 million in revenue per year.

In this initial release, SCF focuses on delivering an API architecture that leverages AWS Application Load Balancer for request routing, allowing developers to freely mix and transition between AWS Lambda and AWS ECS Fargate compute options, accompanied by a rich development experience.

• Deploy seamlessly to AWS Lambda and ECS Fargate via a single workflow (and more providers soon)
• Mix Lambda and Fargate compute within a single API
• Switch compute platforms instantly without code rewrites or downtime
• Optimize container builds automatically for each compute service
• Write Node.js and Python apps naturally - No Dockerfiles needed
• Get production-ready infrastructure in seconds with automated VPC, networking & ALB setup

• Develop Lambda and Fargate containers rapidly with true local emulation
• Route and simulate AWS ALB requests via localhost
• Accelerate development with instant hot reloading
• Inject live AWS IAM roles into your containers
• Enjoy an elegant logging and debugging experience

• Smart code/config change detection for deployments
• Supports one or multiple custom domains on the same API
• Automatic SSL certificate management
• Secure AWS IAM and network defaults
• Load environment variables from .env, AWS Secrets Manager, AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store, HashiCorp Vault, HashiCorp Terraform state, and more via Serverless Framework Variables
• Multi-cloud support coming soon

Serverless Container Framework offers simple YAML to deliver complex architectures via a serverless.containers.yml file. Here is a simple example of a full-stack application.
