I don't know what would be the use case for a HTTP endpoint that return 59 minutes later but this seems interesting.
Super excited about this one. We've been struggling with deployment times and timeouts for long running tasks.
The function versioning seems interesting for rollouts.
First and most important thing: Congrats to the Cloud Functions team for moving GCF forward.
Second: Please, keep working on reducing the cold start times, min-instance is useful, but it is kind of a hack IMHO.
Third: Native support for RUST would be amazing.
