What are the advantages compared cloud function to the rest api written in express in the Parse Server?

#1

Hi,

Currently I used both cloud functions and express router for rest api, while still not quite clear: What are the advantages compared cloud function to the rest api written in express in the Parse Server?

Thanks a lot.

Cloud function brings some convenient functionalities, such as the user doing the request, if the master key is being used, etc. In summary, it is easier to be created, but, other than that, it should work in a similar way of the express router endpoints.
