Would love, love for Firebase to have a service similar to AWS Lambda to manipulate and transform data without having to maintain persistent servers.

You can use any Google Cloud product with Firebase so you have access to Cloud Functions. https://cloud.google.com/functions/
The blaze plan does state full google cloud integration. But I dont think google cloud functions can be directly triggered with firebase
I've been eyeing this. Can we kick off a Cloud Function via Firebase Cloud Messaging?
Hey.. PM for Cloud Functions here.
Short answer is no (well.. not without an intermediate proxy of some sort), but we're in the process of providing direct integration with Cloud Functions across many of the services that fall under the Firebase umbrella. So stay tuned!
That will be awesome! We're running background jobs on a VPS right now and figured we could change that to a Firebase Queue -> Self hosted Director / Proxy service -> Google Pub / Sub -> Google Cloud Functions. Obviously the more direct route would save us some complexity!
Sorry, I don't know. I don't really use Firebase.
