Fundamentals of serverless computing in java

Serverless computing is a cloud-computing execution model that has revolutionized the way applications are developed and deployed. In this model, the cloud provider dynamically manages the allocation and provisioning of servers, allowing developers to focus on writing code without worrying about the underlying infrastructure. Although applications still run on servers, the management of these servers, including scaling and maintenance, is entirely handled by the cloud provider. This approach marks a significant departure from traditional server-based architectures, where developers are responsible for managing and maintaining the servers that host their applications.

Core concepts of serverless computing

Serverless architectures are built around several core concepts. One of the key concepts is the event-driven approach, where functions are executed in response to various triggers such as HTTP requests, database events, and device...
