| Integrations | Lambda natively integrates with over 220 AWS services and 50 SaaS applications. | Its BaaS integration uses Dapr and currently supports the pub/sub and bindings building blocks. |
| Scaling | Lambda automatically scales to incoming request rates and scales down to zero during idle periods; each function can scale up by 1,000 concurrent executions every 10 seconds until it reaches the account concurrency limit. | The project lists autoscaling from zero to N and event-source-metric-based autoscaling for async functions among its features. |
| What it does | AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that runs code in response to events and manages the underlying compute resources. | OpenFunction is a cloud-native, open-source Function as a Service platform for running functions without managing their underlying runtime environment and infrastructure. |
