Thanks! I know this is slightly different from what Flynn is trying to do, but what I was looking out was a way to use standard cloud provided PaaS rather than using cloud as IaaS. This approach may work fine in the short-term but cloud native services provide a lot of extra functionality (monitoring, security, sandboxing, eventing, logging, encryption, etc.,) that would be hard to replicate for something like this. An abstraction to those cloud native service, OTOH, may be useful against lock in. I believe it should be possible given that most of the cloud native services across different clouds provide similar set of features.
