I see that you worked on .Net at Microsoft, + supported languages at present are Python 2,3 and .Net Core.
So.... How different is this from Azure Functions? https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/functions/
Cos I can create a Serverless API using Azure functions also, right? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/funct...
This is the most common question! Other FaaS solutions require your code or your workflow to be structured in some way to fit in with their system, not to mention requiring you to use their tools.
Coherence integrates with the programming language to make it a lot simpler on the developer. Just pass a func and it's getting run. Structure your code however you like and use your favorite tools!
EDIT: One example, it's going to be a lot easier to run your web crawlers on Coherence.
EDIT 2: Yes I worked on .NET Core and am a python enthusiast for over 9 years. This is why they are the first supported languages.
