Serverless - Making The Cloud Developer Friendly
DataQuest
|October 2018
The main reason that serverless or, more specifically, FaaS is being adopted more aggressively is due to the utilitarian nature of its capability.
Early adopters of Cloud have implemented cloud solutions for achieving improved operational efficiency in their business processes. An enterprise on the cloud can reap many benefits as they are able to scale their resources whenever there are heavy business demands. Storage, which the cloud offers is such an easy feature which allows a user to store, retrieve and move their data seamlessly. Security on the cloud is constantly improving and can be compared to being as good as any other option.
Cloud isn’t just for technology geeks who specialize in infrastructure, networking and database services anymore; the revolution that is already on our hands is the mindset of enabling the developer. All popular public providers are working on launching cloud services aimed at developer ease, productivity and support. The main reason for doing so is because it is the innovations that developer community bring on top of the platform drives usage and stickiness to the Cloud platform. One of the most developer-friendly services that have caught on of late is the ‘Serverless’ services supported by most of the cloud providers today.
