Amazon Web Services

AWS is the largest cloud vendor in terms of revenues. Often considered the best with regards to features, it offers great serverless products. This is why we have chosen AWS. If you prefer to use another cloud vendor, the following providers are other great options for serverless:

Google Cloud Engine: This is where you can use Google Cloud Functions for serverless code execution with Node.js, and Google Cloud Datastore as a serverless database. Also, Google has integrated the Firebase platform, which offers many tools and serverless services for mobile and web applications like storage, authentication, and messaging.
Microsoft Azure: This offers Azure Functions for serverless code execution, supporting C#, Node.js, Python, and PHP.
IBM Cloud: This offers IBM Bluemix OpenWhisk for serverless code execution, supporting C#, Node.js, Java, and Swift.
