QUESTION: Is there similar tool for Cloud Functions?

[jfbaro]

Congrats on the great work. I have used this for AWS Lambda, but now I am working for a new organization and they are on GCP. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi @jfbaro 👋 thanks for using Lambda Power Tuning 🙏

I'm not too familiar with GCP personally, but I'd guess it should be possible to build something similar with Google Cloud Workflows and Google Cloud Functions. Or even with a simple local script invoking the Cloud Functions APIs.

In order to work, the Cloud Functions APIs need the ability to:

• change power/RAM on the fly
• inspect invocation logs/stats immediately after the invocation is completed
• configure multiple versions/aliases with different memory configurations, and then invoke them in parallel (if you care about parallel execution of the workflow -> very useful if you care about overall speed of execution)

If these conditions are met, and if you narrow down the tuning features/integrations (e.g. no need to integrate S3 or pre/post hooks), you should be able to reuse some of the tuning business logic by reimplementing some of the lambda/utils.js utility functions (where the largest majority of AWS API calls are implemented).

Thanks for the reply. I'll investigate this and get back here once I have an answer! Glad that the solution seems to be portable.
