@matigo They insist on keeping their tech in the 90s, but AWS is still on the table..?
@matigo platform lock-in is my biggest concern, but GCE and Azure seem to be getting their lambda-like services up and running too. Worst case scenario, you can always run your lambda functions in any one of the hundreds of docker templates people have written to emulate a Lambda environment.
@matigo yeah, it's pretty awesome. I'm using it to do really simple stuff like run some tasks on a schedule or perform a task in reaction to an event or alarm, but you could use it with a lot of stuff. the reason I'm using it is that it just doesn't make sense to have a full instance running the whole time when I only need to run something once a week or whatever.
@sumudu sorry it's taking forever to get to you on that thing. I think I'll be able to get to it today, I'll send you a message here when it's done.
Ugh, finally done with paperwork for tomorrow. All the examples were assuming my wife wasn't making any money and was a dependent of me, so I had to kind of make things up along the way… hah… We'll see how much I got wrong tomorrow.
