Stand-alone ObjectScript Runtime for Containers

Would it be possible to create a slim ObjectScript runtime that could be used to run arbitrary ObjectScript code in containers to achieve ObjectScript-based microservices? This would be great for folks who are very familiar with ObjectScript already and want to develop new micros services without learning another language/framework.

    Interesting idea, and occasionally there has been some theoretical interest in having an “IRIS” sized for embedded devices, but there has never been enough commercial interest to make it a reality.
