I haven't personally tried, so I can't say for certain, but Lambda has publicly stated they run on bare metal EC2 instances, presumably the supply of whatever instance types they use should be fairly healthy

You're talking about AWS Lambda?
- Their use of bare metal isn't necessarily the latest gen hardware - AWS Lambda is part of AWS, and obviously has privileged access to supply
The interesting part to me is less the exact hardware generation and more the control plane around placement, isolation, and startup latency. That is hard to copy outside AWS.
