my thoughts is that Firecracker might be not the best runtime for that, as it’s very minimal on devices it wants to support (famously no PCI out of the box)

Amp’s Orbs run on E2B.
E2B is fully open-source under Apache 2.0 and runs on GCP, AWS, Azure (preview) and locally on any Linux box that has /dev/kvm (Mac works via Colima, too).

because pyqwest is what official connect Python library uses and we wanted to follow that

we have recently switched from httpx for the same reason but instead went with the Rust-based pyqwest (runs on Hyper) it has also a drop-in httpx-compatible transport so migration was easy and also it supports http2 trailers

i’d say what AWS released looks closer to a bare compute primitive. E2B is up the stack and ships everything around VM like snapshots, networking, integrations.
also, there’s no lock-in, E2B is open-source and can be hosted on any cloud (AWS included).
plus supports bigger boxes, higher concurrency, longer timeouts (24hr).
disclaimer: i work at E2B

the code is not public, so we can't know. i think it's much more nuanced and certain users' comments might get a preferential treatment, based on factors other than the upvote count - which itself is hidden from us.

of course your comment attracts more upvotes - it's at the top.
