Sure! I think it's fine infrastructure-wise, but the dev experience is awful. I like tools you can build, test and run locally, for example. The fundamental problem I run into with Lambda@Edge is just that their request stages aren't a great abstraction (OpenResty/nginx has a similar problem). It really limits what kinds of problems you can solve.

I'm really hoping that Service Workers becomes the standard for JavaScript HTTP handling in the future.
