Cloud Functions
Cloud Functions is a serverless execution environment for building and connecting cloud services. With Cloud Functions, you write simple, single-purpose functions that are attached to events emitted from your cloud infrastructure and services.
The beating heart of Serverless! Run those functions in the cloud.
AWS Lambda
The original cloud functions provider, and probably the biggest. Many other services use AWS Lambda under the hood, for example, Netlify Functions are Lambdas.
Explore more than 60 products and start building on AWS using the free tier. Three different types of free offers are available depending on the product used.

Apex
Apex lets you build, deploy, and manage AWS Lambda functions with ease. With Apex you can use languages that are not natively supported by AWS Lambda, such as Golang, through the use of a Node.js shim injected into the build. A variety of workflow related tooling is provided for testing functions, rolling back deploys, viewing metrics, tailing logs, hooking into the build system, and more.

Webtask
An in-browser editor for creating and testing cloud functions. They have some learning curriculum to get you up to speed with cloud functions.
It used to be a kind of elaborate demonstration of how you could build user-managed cloud functions into your own app via Auth0 Extend, but Auth0 discontinued that product. I'd be a little wary about the future of Webtask, but it sure makes a nice quick way to spin up a cloud function.

ZEIT - Vercel
Zeit Now is interesting in that deployment through it will turn any code it finds that is appropriate into a cloud function you can run. The docs linked to here show that PHP files can be run like that, as well as Node.js, Go, Python, Rust, and Bash.
Vercel is a cloud platform for static sites and Serverless Functions that fits perfectly with your workflow. It enables developers to host Jamstack websites and web services that deploy instantly, scale automatically, and requires no supervision, all with no configuration.

Excellent Article Nirazan! One note, if your company has a MSDN license, then Azure offers $150.00 credit each month to all developers under that license. It's a nice way to ease into learning about Azure.
