About Salesforce Functions:
· As a Salesforce developer, you want to focus on bringing your solution to market quickly and easily without worrying about infrastructure provisioning or managing new apps. But sometimes, you had to go off-platform to get the compute power and scalability you needed. Starting today, with Salesforce Functions, there is now another way.
· With Functions, Salesforce developers can build salesforce solutions with standard programming languages like JavaScript/TypeScript (using Node.js) and Java, and they have access to the vast universe of open-source code and libraries to accelerate development.
· There’s no need for external services, connected apps, client keys, certificates, and authorization, the function code will be auto authenticated, and no need to worry about it and the function code will run in the salesforce trust boundary.
· With Salesforce functions, the Maximum CPU time will be increased as below
