A lexical analyzer is provided to analyze serverless application code to help ensure that the serverless application is portable between different execution environments. The lexical analyzer may identify non-portable features of the application, and alerts of these features may be provided to users. A transfer tool may be provided to assist in transferring a serverless application between computing platforms, such as by converting the portable serverless application to a container format. An interface may be provided that subscribes, on behalf of a container, to receive notifications of triggering events from a computing platform's notification service.
