Functions 4.7/10

Pay-per-use: $0.20/M requests plus duration in 1ms increments per GB-second. Free tier 1M requests + 400,000 GB-seconds/month. Arm/Graviton2 up to ~20% cheaper.

AWS Lambda scores 4.7/10 for free value in Functions. The main constraint: Free tier of 1M requests + 400,000 GB-seconds/month; then $0.20 per 1M requests + ~$0.0000166667 per GB-second (x86, per-use in 1ms increments). Arm/Graviton2 up to ~20% cheaper.
