Could you build this?
Partial The API orchestration and streaming layer are straightforward, but building secure, fast, multi-tenant isolated cloud execution sandboxes is technically challenging.
What it would actually take: Requires a microVM orchestration architecture using Firecracker or gVisor, integrated with ephemeral volume mounting and bidirectional WebSocket/SSE streaming. Beyond the front-facing API, deep systems and virtualization security expertise is necessary to prevent escapes and ensure sub-second startup.
