What is Serverless?
Key Concepts Definitions
Serverless architecture allows developers to build and run applications without managing servers. This reduces
operational overhead and costs.
Benefits of Serverless
Architectures
Web applications
Host dynamic websites easily.
Mobile backends
Build scalable mobile APIs.
IoT applications
Manage IoT device data efficiently.
Azure Functions
2 Microsoft's event-driven compute.
AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions are leading platforms. They provide tools for building
scalable applications. They offer easy integration with other services.
Building a Serverless Application
Choose a platform
Select AWS, Azure, or Google.
Write functions
Develop individual functions.
Configure triggers
Set up event triggers.
Start with defining the application's functionality. Develop individual functions for
each task. Configure triggers for event-driven execution. Deploy and test your
serverless application.
Challenges and
Considerations
Cold starts Debugging
Initial latency can affect Distributed systems pose
performance. debug challenges.
Security
Properly secure function invocations.
Enhanced tools
Better tools for development and monitoring are emerging.
