 # Getting started with OpenWhisk
 
-OpenWhisk is an [Apache Incubator 
Project](https://incubator.apache.org/projects/openwhisk.html). It is an open 
source implementation of a distributed, event-driven compute service. You can 
run it on your own hardware on-prem, or in the cloud. When running in the cloud 
you could use a Platform as as Service (PaaS) version of the OpenWhisk provided 
by IBM Cloud Functions, or you can provision it yourself into Infrastructure as 
a Service (IaaS) clouds, such as IBM Cloud, Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure, Google 
GCP, etc.

 OpenWhisk runs application logic in response to events or direct invocations 
from web or mobile apps over HTTP. Events can be provided from IBM Cloud 
services like Cloudant and from external sources. Developers can focus on 
writing application logic, and creating actions that are executed on demand. 
The benefits of this new paradigm are that you do not explicitly provision 
servers and worry about auto-scaling, or worry about high availability, 
updates, maintenance and pay for hours of processor time when your server is 
running but not serving requests. Your code executes whenever there is an HTTP 
call, database state change, or other type of event that triggers the execution 
of your code. You get billed by millisecond of execution time (rounded up to 
the nearest 100ms in case of OpenWhisk) or on some platforms per request (not 
supported on OpenWhisk yet), not per hour of JVM regardless whether that VM was 
doing useful work or not.
