Cloud Functions overview

Available in Classic and VPC

Cloud Functions is a NAVER Cloud Platform serverless service that lets you easily write business logic and run it in the cloud without the burden of managing or provisioning servers. Because you are charged only for the time your code runs in the cloud, you can operate efficiently and respond flexibly to sudden spikes in requests.

Cloud Functions features

Cloud Functions offers these key features:

• Fully managed serverless platform with automatic scale-up/out capabilities for rapid system and service setup.
• Action and trigger creation and execution features that allow you to write business logic with simplicity.
• Effective action management and sharing through packages.
• Intuitive monitoring of each resource through the console dashboard and detailed logs.
• Economical and easy implementation for microservices with the structure that charges you only for the executed codes.
• API server implementation through web actions without the need for separate load balancer and web server management and setup.
• Authentication, access control, and usage limits through integration with the API Gateway of NAVER Cloud Platform.
