Serverless Architectures
Explore the fundamentals of serverless architectures in AWS cloud computing, comparing them with traditional monolithic applications. Understand how serverless microservices operate, optimize costs with pay-as-you-go execution, and enable scalable, efficient application development without server management.
Serverless computing is a cloud computing paradigm where we do not need to set up servers to execute tasks. The cloud service provider manages and provisions the servers to execute tasks.
Monolith applications vs. serverless architecture
Traditionally, applications were designed on request/response models. The client would send requests to the backend, consisting of multiple classes to process the request and return responses. Since such applications are all bundled in one package, they are also called monolith applications.
With the arrival of cloud computing, developers deployed their monolith software applications on virtual machines on the cloud, such ...
