CLServerless architecture explained.
Before 2014, server management was a much more manual and complex task.
The concept of serverless computing was beginning to gain prominence, and AWS Lambda took it into the mainstream.
Now there are several options for how much infrastructure management abstraction we want.
Serverless computing abstracts server management tasks from the development team’s workload.
This explanation describes serverless through the lens of FaaS.
Any technology that abstracts away the need to manage the underlying infrastructure and allows you to use it without direct control is a form of serverless.
One of the most prominent forms of serverless computing is Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) to handle event-triggered code execution.
With this setup, cloud providers can allocate resources dynamically and only charge for the actual compute time used instead of reserved capacity.
Serverless architectures can support a wide range of applications, from simple CRUD operations to complex, event-driven data processing workflows.
It fosters a focus on code and functionality, streamlining the deployment of applications that can automatically adapt to fluctuating workloads.
