Production grade no kubernetes environment

A production grade deployment without Kubernetes allow me to start from very minimal scale with ( a few hundred users per day and low workloads ) running on my local computer or on a raspberry pi. then I can scale the same architecture of my application to a managed Kubernates service.

This will help lean teams to develop and grow up to enterprise scale. OpenFaaS is providing similar feature with faasd

I saw docker-compose option https://openwhisk.apache.org/documentation.html#openwhisk_deployment
which states that it is not suitable production use.

If there is a way to use OpenWisk without Kubernaties already available then it worth considering adding a good documentation for scale down method which helps side project geeks :)

## Environment details:

* local deployment, Mac OS, Linux, Windows, Raspberry PI
