Serverless compute

Building serverless applications is one of the primary advantages of moving to the cloud. They reduce admin overhead to manager infrastructure, thus increasing productivity and further reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) in the cloud. The serverless app can be highly performant due to the ease of parallelization and concurrency. Serverless computing is the foundation of serverless apps as it manages to scale automatically, is optimized to reduce latency and cost, and increases throughput. Let’s learn about available serverless compute options in AWS.

AWS Lambda

When it comes to serverless computing, AWS Lambda comes first in mind. With Lambda, you can unleash the creativity and speed of development organizations without compromising the IT team’s ability to provide a scalable, cost-effective, and manageable infrastructure.

AWS Lambda is an event-driven, serverless compute service that extends other AWS services with custom logic or creates other...
