Code can run on serverless tools: lower cost, less maintenance, infinite scale 2. The server isn't under heavy load, so can handle hundreds of concurrent missions 3. Pub/Sub message delivery is guaranteed, improving reliability 4. Multiple workflows can share the same task runners, aiding collaboration 5. Task runners can run anywhere in any language, allowing for rapid development with no vendor lock-in Contributing Please see the contributing guide.
