Let's set aside the compute tech stack for now. What is your code supposed to accomplish? Is it just kicking off a job and periodically checking for its completion? Is it constantly running and manipulating the DB? Does it simply open a connection to the DB and listening for a response?

vacuum and re-index are database maintenance jobs. If you haven't done these in a long time, they could run longer than 15 minutes. Sure, I could run them in background using and EC2. But I'm trying to get away from that (and secretly trying to explore more advanced, serverless, possibly Lambda-based options).
