Description

Serverless/webhooks are fine, but they introduce an additional layer of complexity (networking with everything that comes with it for example).

A FastCGI like feature, allowing hasura actions/events to call a custom program/worker run locally by hasura could allow to bypass those problems while allowing to run custom business code.

It might sound a bit old school but old concepts are sometimes interesting to revisit :)

What do you think?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing how Hasura actions and events currently invoke webhooks or serverless handlers, then determine whether a local FastCGI-like worker is in scope; done requires an agreed design and clearly defined behavior before implementation.
