Description
The Managed Runtime is a technology platform at Salesforce that serves javascript-backed websites and services at massive scale (100s of millions of requests in a day, millions of sessions) using AWS serverless technologies. Our first adopters are customer and partner developers working on headless commerce sites in Commerce Cloud, but also serve sites for customers integrating with Salesforce sites for Marketing Cloud use cases beyond commerce.
