Abstract
A service that provides serverless computation environments with persistent storage for web-based applications. Users of a web application are provided with persistent user-specific contexts including a file volume and application settings. Upon logging into the application via a web application interface, the service accesses the user's context and dynamically allocates compute instance(s) and installs execution environment(s) on the compute instance(s) according to the user's context to provide a network environment for the user. A network pipe may be established between the web application interface and the network environment. Interactions with the network environment are monitored, and changes to execution environments are recorded to the user's context. Compute instances may be deallocated by the service when not in use, with new compute instances allocated as needed. The user may select a different compute instance type for an execution environment, and the service seamlessly switches computer instances for the user.
