What is Serverless?

Serverless is a cloud computing execution model where the cloud provider dynamically manages the allocation and provisioning of servers. A serverless application runs in stateless compute containers that are event-triggered and fully managed by the cloud provider.

Serverless Providers

• AWS Lambda: If you’ve deployed anything to Vercel, you’ve used AWS Lambda, since Vercel uses it under the hood.
• Azure Functions
• Google Cloud Functions
• And others…

Increase Business Logic Focus X Decrease Stack Implementation

• Bare Metal: You have to manage everything, from the hardware to the application.
• Virtual Machines: Resource optimization, but you still have to manage your environment.
• Containers: Package your application with its dependencies, simplifying the deployment process, but still have some challenges.
• Serverless: You only have to worry about your application code. Use an Event-Driven approach to trigger your functions. The cloud provides FaaS (Functions as a Service).
