Cloud Functions

Cloud Functions are like on-demand digital workers hosted in the cloud that run specific pieces of code in response to events or triggers. For example, when someone uploads a photo, a Cloud Function can automatically process it, resize, or analyze it without needing a dedicated server. They enable developers to execute small, independent tasks efficiently, scaling automatically based on demand. This approach reduces infrastructure management, cuts costs, and allows fast, scalable responses to various online activities, making complex automated workflows more accessible and manageable.
