International Classification:

G06F 9/48

Abstract:

In various embodiments, a serverless function agent determines that a client stub function has been invoked with a first set of arguments in a first execution environment. The serverless function agent then performs one or more operations on a media item that is associated with a first argument included in the first set of arguments to generate a second argument included in a second set of arguments. Notably, the first argument has a first data type and the second argument has a second data type. Subsequently, the serverless function agent invokes a function with the second set of arguments in a second execution environment. Advantageously, because the serverless function agent automatically performs operations on the media item, the overall amount of technical know-how and manual effort required to enable the function to successfully execute on a wide range of media items can be reduced.

International Classification:

H04N 21/81
G06F 9/54
H04L 29/06
H04N 21/858

Abstract:

In various embodiments, a function build application compiles source code to generate an executable version of a function that has a first function signature. The function build application then replaces a first data type of a first parameter included in the first function signature with a second data type to generate a second function signature for a client stub function. Subsequently, the function build application generates a remote procedure call (RPC) client that includes the client stub function. Notably, the RPC client causes the function to execute when the client stub function is invoked. Advantageously, unlike conventional techniques that require manual generation of strongly typed functions, the function build application automatically customizes the RPC client for the function.
