Cloud Functions for Firebase is a serverless framework that lets you automatically run backend code in response to events triggered by Firebase features and HTTPS requests. Your JavaScript or TypeScript code is stored in Google’s cloud and runs in a managed environment. There’s no need to manage and scale your own servers.
How does it work?
After you write and deploy a function, Google’s servers begin to manage the function immediately. You can fire the function directly with an HTTP request, or, in the case of background functions, Google’s servers will listen for events and run the function when it is triggered.
As the load increases or decreases, Google responds by rapidly scaling the number of virtual server instances needed to run your function. Each function runs in isolation, in its own environment with its own configuration.
