I'm amazed on how well this article fits with a new product that we have been working on at Wasmer. AWS Lambda is great, but it doesn't really solve the cold start problem of dynamic languages. Nor does FastCGI.
We are very close to launch Instaboot, a new feature for Wasmer Edge that thanks to WebAssembly is able to bring incredible fast cold-starts to dynamic languages. Bringing 90ms cold-start times to WordPress (compared to >1s in state-of-the-art cloud providers).
