One thing that is not super clear from the blog post, and which may be a surpsise to some, is that Cloud Functions will require you to upload your source code. The compilation happens not on your end but on Google servers.
This is probably not a surprise for folks who have been using Python or Node for cloud functions, but it is something to think about.
Other FaaS providers don't have this requirement, and just take a Linux x86_64 binary.
