5 Serverless Challenges Of DevOps Teams And How To Overcome Them

DevOps.com, Friday, January 26th, 2024

Serverless is a cloud computing execution model where the cloud provider dynamically manages the allocation of machine resources. The term 'serverless' might be somewhat misleading as it doesn't mean servers are not involved.

Instead, it means that developers no longer have to think about servers, even though they're running on them.

The idea is to abstract the infrastructure away so that developers can focus solely on the code. Functions, the units of code, are triggered by a variety of events, including HTTP requests, database events, queuing services, monitoring alerts, file uploads, scheduled events (cron jobs), and user sign-ups or in-app activities.
