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.
Do I need to manage servers to run workflows on Tiny Command?
No. Tiny Command is a hosted platform, so workflows run on its infrastructure and there is nothing for you to provision.
