Stateful Functions as a Service in Action
Summary: High-level model for stateful functions in serverless platforms, enabling in-function state and inter-function calls. Maps function data flows into a stateful dataflow graph and runs on a modified open-source engine to deliver scalable cloud services. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
