Full definition of serverless
AWS Lambda, Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Functions are serverless platforms. Your code runs only when triggered (HTTP request, scheduled job, queue message); you pay per execution. Tiny Command runs every workflow step on serverless infrastructure, which is why we can scale to spiky workloads without provisioning capacity in advance.
In practice
Serverless examples
Serverless billing

FAQ
Common questions about serverless
Does serverless have downsides?
Cold starts (first invocation takes longer), execution time limits (15 min max), and statelessness (no in-memory cache across runs). Mostly invisible in workflow tools.
Is Tiny Command itself serverless?
Yes — the platform runs on AWS Lambda + queues. You get the elasticity benefits without managing the infra.
