We’ve also been hacking away in the same space with StackHut (http://www.stackhut.com http://www.stackhut.com) - build stateless & ephemeral microservices in Python and JS that are deployed as cloud APIs for access over JSON-RPC; with simple type-checking, dependencies, shelling out to any other code/binaries, and more. Most code is open-sourced at http://www.github.com/StackHut http://www.github.com/StackHut and we're working on making it easily deployable on your own hardware.
