Invoked.io didn't reinvent the wheel

We work with the exact same technologies you are already using

We strive to remove friction when it comes time to scale, secure and maintain distributed applications.

EFF commented 9 years ago

No one tried to reinvent the wheel

I think we should somewhere specify something like "you already know how to use INVOKED, It's so simple" or "Gracefully integrates with your code" or "Easy to implement in your existing code base" or "You'll have no trouble to integrate INVOKED in your existing code base"

I love the "you already know how to use invoked"

slvnperron commented 9 years ago

"You really shouldn't need to read the doc at all, it's so simple, as a programmer you instinctively know how to use it."

EFF commented 9 years ago

mmmmm "You really shouldn't need to read the doc at all" is counter intuitive !

Invoked is not "yet another paas" that auto-scale your apps according to your budget. Nobody rewrote a whole lot of functions to fit the model, we use the same technologies you're already using everyday. We strive to reduce friction when it comes to scale, distribute and maintain distributed functions. With invoked, you can easily cloudify any existing function written in any langage.

As an example, let's say you've found the audio stream processing function that you wanted on GitHub but it's written in C# and your app is in node.js. With invoked, you don't need to create a port of the C# function to node.js, simply cloudify the function and we'll handle scale, availability and monitoring for you.

I added a few modifications. I'd suggest:

Invoked is not "yet another platform-as-a-service" that auto-scales your apps according to your budget. Our solution wasn't to rewrite every function to fit this new model, we actually want you to use existing functions. We strive to reduce friction when it comes to scale and maintain distributed functions. With invoked, you can easily cloudify any existing function written in any langage.

Found an audio stream processing function written in C# but your app is in node.js? Simply cloudify the function and Invoked will handle scale, availability and monitoring for you.

I'm still unsure if we should keep the second paragraph... @slvnperron @jackdbernier ?

slvnperron commented 9 years ago

I would remove the second paragraph. I would add a section to the website that shows typical use cases instead.

YEAH ! SAME FOR ME !
