At our company we have been pushing a lot of the non-core functions, that previously used standalone binaries, out to serverless infrastructure. Things like PDF generation or asset compilation are extra work to setup in a container context so having them be serverless makes sense.

Any time sensitive information gets offloaded to a 3rd party service you have to take security into consideration and I think that is something that the cloud companies will have to make sure is solid and well thought out.
