mixed integer solver on a gcloud function

eg python pickled 1GB object, but might be compressed
from mip_cvxpy import PYTHON_MIP
import cvxpy
def cloud_func(problem, options):
- solver = PYTHON_MIP()
- problem.solve(solver=solver, verbose=True, gp=False, **options)
- return (problem, stdout_content, stderr_content)
- “options” here is a dictionary

One question out of curiosity: Any particular reason we're going with Google Cloud here? If we have an idea which cloud provider we want to use long-term, it would be good to use that one for this function (to reduce number of accounts). E.g., if we want to go with AWS, we could use lambdas for this instead.
