Description

Did some preliminary research, there seem to be:

  1. Http functions. These are a distinct type of function, and will need separate JVM and JS implementations. The JS implementation can use the node-serverless module in http4s.
  2. Background functions. I think these are more similar to Lambda, in that there is a common interface and various types of triggers that are parsed as JSON.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the http4s node-serverless module at node-serverless/src/main/scala/org/http4s/node/serverless and the issue's distinction between HTTP and background functions. Clarify the JVM and JavaScript HTTP implementations and the shared interface for JSON-parsed background triggers; the work is done when Google Cloud Functions support covers the agreed function types.
