Faster than writing the Lambda

Used weekly for 1–2 years

For internal glue — take a webhook, enrich it, write to Postgres, notify Slack — this is quicker than standing up a function and its deployment pipeline. Secrets and versioning are handled, so there is genuinely nothing to set up.

Pros

Code steps with real package imports. Built-in secrets. Free tier covers a lot of personal automation.

Cons

Credits burn on execution time, so one slow third-party API cost more than the rest combined.

Problems it solves

Removed a dozen tiny Lambda functions and their deployment overhead.

Great for me, useless for the ops team

Used weekly for 6–12 months

I built six integrations in an afternoon. Then ops asked to change a Slack channel in one and could not, so it came back to me. We now run Zapier for anything the business owns and Pipedream for engineering-only workflows.

Pros

Excellent developer productivity. Version history and rollback work properly.

Cons

Hard boundary at the technical line. Nobody non-technical will touch it.
