These functions are executed by a serverless platform or provider (such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions or Google Cloud Functions) that manages the underlying infrastructure, scaling and billing. Higher latency and cold start issues due to the initialization time of the functions. And serverless support is a core capability.

AWS Lambda functions are an example of how a serverless framework works: Developers write a function in a supported language or platform. When an application is triggered, it can cause latency as the application starts. AWS Lambda allows developers to use NodeJS or Python while you can control nearly every detail of a REST API.
