Serverless computing
Advantages of the serverless model
Reduced operating costs. Serverless computing allows you to pay for the exact amount of resources a company uses.
Scalability. Serverless architectures are designed to scale automatically, handling from a few requests to thousands per second.
High performance. Delegating tasks to a provider allows IT to focus on its core services and innovation.
Faster time to market. Companies can deploy applications faster and more frequently, thereby reducing time to market.
Applications of Serverless
Microservices. Serverless computing is suitable for microservices architecture because it allows each service to scale independently.
Real-time file processing. You can run serverless functions whenever new files are uploaded to cloud storage.
