If this sounds like Cloud Functions, here's the history. Cloud Functions 1st gen ran on older, separate infrastructure with strict limits: 9-minute timeouts, one request per instance, no concurrency. Cloud Functions 2nd gen (GA in 2022) was already built on top of Cloud Run under the hood, which unlocked 60-minute timeouts and multi-request concurrency. In 2024, Google made it official and rebranded 2nd gen as... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
Cloud Functions (GCF) -- originally serverless functions to compete with AWS Lambda; latest generation rebranded as Cloud Run Functions. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago
Of course, I can't just directly give my static website permissions to modify my databases, which is why I created a Cloud Function as a "middle-man" -- we should always assume there will be malicious actors that will cause irreparable damage if they have direct access to a database (I don't want to get charged by Google Cloud hehe). - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
Itโs a lightweight GitHub App built with Probot and deployed serverlessly on GCF. Here's what it does:. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
Serverless architectures are revolutionizing software development by removing the need for server management. Cloud services like AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, and Azure Functions allow developers to concentrate on writing code, as these platforms handle scaling automatically. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
I wrote up some issues with service reliability here https://github.com/andrewbaxter/puteron/?tab=readme-ov-file#origin-story Design-wise, I think having users modify service on/off state *and* systemd itself modify those states is a terrible design, which leads to stuff turning back on when you turn it off, or things turning off despite you wanting them on, etc. (also mentioned higher up) FWIW after making... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
Still, I applaud efforts like s6 and Dinit as competition is a good thing in general. I hope they'll continue to be improved upon until they've become viable alternatives to systemd for most users. Source: about 3 years ago
You can download dinit from github https://github.com/davmac314/dinit. (also read everything about it) Do a simple make && make install which should install it to /sbin/dinit No need to remove systemd or openrc. /sbin/init should be symlinked to whatever init system you use. Read the instructions on dinits page. All the services go into /etc/dinit.d. And you can "dinitctl enable servicename" to enable it. I... Source: over 3 years ago
It got mass-adopted while being imperfect, so that's to be expected. Thankfully its inception and the criticism that followed have paved the way for the likes of dinit and s6. Source: over 3 years ago
I use dinit do manage services on my home server. One of them is Caddy, that shares TLS/SSL cert state with my remote server by using Redis on said remote server. However, since this means that I need to have established a remote connection first before starting Caddy, I would like to know of a method to check if tailscale has in fact finished connecting.

Google App Engine - A powerful platform to build web and mobile apps that scale automatically.
s6 - s6 is a small suite of programs for UNIX, designed for process supervision. It can be used as an init system, or as separate supervision components.
Salesforce Platform - Salesforce Platform is a comprehensive PaaS solution that paves the way for the developers to test, build, and mitigate the issues in the cloud application before the final deployment.
runit - runit is a cross-platform Unix init scheme with service supervision, a replacement for sysvinit...
AWS Lambda - Automatic, event-driven compute service
systemd - systemd is a replacement for the init daemon for Linux (either System V or BSD-style).
