Imagine if you could auto scale simply by wrapping any existing app code in a function and have that block of code run in a temporary copy of your app

So basically make a part of your application run serverless instead of the entire stack.

I suppose that fits more neatly into OTP’s process model.

I tried serverless years ago, but the technical trade offs didn’t make sense then.

More recently I think that YouTuber Theo Brown tried going serverless before moving to edge servers for his startup.

I’m trying to fully visualize in the theatre of my mind’s eye how FLAME could fit different applications.
