Idea: Simple and scalable mechanism for bundling lambdas into services

I wonder how feasible it would be to eventually implement a framework which could take Feral-defined lambdas and bundle them together as a persistent microservice (which presumably would run on the JVM). The observation here is that serverless is usually really great when you're a smaller project with lower traffic and less time for devops BS, but as you scale up it starts to get really expensive and it would be nice to have a clean migration path for taking your existing stuff and moving it onto something like EKS.

I feel like Feral is kind of uniquely positioned to offer something useful in this space, long-term (i.e. probably not right now), because the abstraction level is so much higher and because the runtime semantics are so uniform across Native, JS, and JVM. One of the many challenges with this type of thing is the ideal platform for serverless functions is either JS or Native, while the ideal platform for bundled persistent microservices is JVM. In theory, we can move more fluidly between those spaces.

Anyway, it's just a seed of a thought, but maybe something that could turn into something.

No files, tests, or implementation entry points are named. Start by reviewing Feral's lambda runtime semantics across Native, JS, and JVM, then investigate how an EKS-hosted persistent service could preserve them; done requires a defined migration design and implementation scope.
