description: Beam (beam.cloud) is a serverless GPU and Python cloud-runtime platform.
  You write ordinary Python, decorate it, and Beam deploys it as a web endpoint, a
  task queue, a scheduled job, or a secure sandbox running on on-demand CPU and GPU
  containers with per-second billing, rapid cold starts, and automatic scaling.
