Node is the WRONG runtime for serverless

It’s a sensationalist trap —but the complexity of async code does not come with the same gains found in traditional architectures

Note: IOPipe is leveraging Node to keep HTTP connections open between Lambda invocations. That’s actually a pretty huge deal, but I haven’t heard if it’s not possible with other runtimes.
