They have per-second billing. Use it as serverless.

5 second boot time though. Better than a normal VM, but maybe not great for user facing serverless.

I'm interested - what type of app can you run on 64mb of ram? What languages are suitable for building these types of microservices?

I’m pretty sure most languages, even interpreted, can run at least small programs in 64MB. If you want to minimize memory usage at all costs, I think you’d want a non-GC compiled language (C(++), Swift and Rust come to mind).

Yeah, batch job, cron are the better fit. I also think serverless != FaaS.

I'm intrigued by network usage being "unlimited". Does this mean unlimited streaming of 10GB of video for a little over 3 USD/month?

I'd just like to say how dispiriting I find this question considering I how envious of my friends $4k+ computer I was because it had 64mb of RAM and could play C&C Red Alert with absolutely no slowdown. Let that sink in...in the mid 90s, we comfortably fit a Windows GUI and a somewhat sophisticated game into 64mb of RAM and 20 years of "progress" later, we're asking what kind of special accommodations are necessary to handle HTTP requests with the same resources.

Note: It's an entirely reasonable question to ask, which makes it all the sadder.
