This works beyond a scale of 1, e.g if you want to be ready for 100 concurrent invocations using ping it’s quite difficult to do that I imagine.
Also presumably more reliable.
With the 5 minute ping the underlying container will be reprovisioned every few hours. At which point it’s a race to see whether the next ping comes before the real user request to swallow the cold start.
