- johns 11y agoPretty cool. Reminds me of webscript.io
- underbluewaters 11y agoVery cool. Far easier to use than AWS Lambda. Not clear from the homepage. Is this a paid service? Open-source project?
- tjanczuk17 11y agoWe are experimenting with the concept before productizing. Part of it is open source if you want to play on your own box: https://github.com/auth0/webtask-runner https://github.com/auth0/webtask-runner
- ossreality 11y agoSo, random JS-file, plus a two-line Dockerfile, plus export DOCKER_HOST achieves the exact same thing. But for those that don't know any better... okay.

The sandboxing architecture (clusters, ELB, controllers, Docker, etc) is surprisingly similar to the one I implemented for http://repl.it http://repl.it It's made simpler since I have network access disabled on the docker containers, but check it out, it can run Node as well as host other languages: http://repl.it/languages/nodejs http://repl.it/languages/nodejs
- techdragon 11y agoWow. It's amazing watching the industry converge on this sort of thing. We architected similar designs during the six month pre-planning period at my current startup.
