Why would anyone tie themselves to digital ocean Single infrastructure code dies and the author can't usually save it Ask a heroku fan how they're feeling right now before moving forward with any single host approach
Having all your code platform agnostic isn't really a viable option unless you've got budget to spare.

Just fine? Fly.io has a fairly seamless automated migration at https://fly.io/launch/heroku ; my Heroku apps are quite portable.
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/conceptual_articles/h... shows a pretty similar approach to Lambda - they just invoke a function with a handler. You could run the same handler on AWS Lambda or Cloudfront's workers, probably without any changes.
Ado from DO here. Happy to help in anyway I can. Super excited for DO Functions to finally go GA!
How long are cold starts with these functions? How long does it take to deploy an update? Are updates rolling/zero-downtime?
Cold starts depend on runtime and size of the function and an area of continuous improvement (for all cloud providers).
New way to get vendor locked architecture?

Arm Price $0.0000133334 for every GB-second $0.20 per 1M requests
DO $0.0000185/GB-second So basically a little higher price for each GB/s but no cost pr request.
AWS free tier provides 400,000 GB-s and 1 million free requests per month
DO free tier 90,000GB-seconds of usage for free per month
So cheaper in some respects compared to AWS. Google and Azure is roughly the same as AWS. Also DO include egress which is expensive on AWS (it does not say it cost anything).
I’ve been looking forward to this since the nimbella acq, but now I feel betrayed by the new pricing and probably won’t even try it.
