Cloud Functions overview

Available in Classic and VPC

Cloud Functions is a serverless-type service of NAVER Cloud Platform that enables you to simply enter a business logic you want and implement it in the cloud environment easily without any server management or burdens of provisioning. It helps you manage effectively because it only charges for as much as the codes executed in the cloud environment, and respond flexibly to any sudden 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 set-up.
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.
Economic and easy implementation for the micro service 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 set-up.
Verification, access control, and usage limits through integration with the API Gateway of NAVER Cloud Platform.
