There are several benefits, other than the fact that you don't have to
spend time developing all the glue code yourself:
* It has the potential of gracefully falling back to executing the
code locally if there is no internet connection.
* You don't get hard time limits on requests like you do with App
Engine
* You can spawn as many threads on the remote machines as you wish.
* It is cheaper than using a normal IaaS provider like EC2 since you
only ever pay for the actual computations performed and don't need to
pay for unused capacity in the cloud machines you rent.

Thanks,

Sebastian
