Official documentation

How does genezio work?

genezio is using JSON RPC 2.0 to facilitate the communication between SDK and your class. Your functions are deployed in the Genezio infrastructure. The functions are not executed on a long lasting Virtual Machine. Instead, our system uses a serverless approach. Whenever a request is received, your code is loaded and executed. This is more cost and energy efficient. However, the developer needs to take into account the following - the values of the global variables are not persistent between runs.

Type safety is ensured by the generated SDK, even if the server and the client are not written in the same language. The CLI tool analyzes the server code generates client side types equivalent to the server side types, as well as functions with equivalent signatures.
