Serverless

Explore the fundamentals of serverless microservices deployment, focusing on using AWS Lambda with API Gateway and Cloud Foundry. Understand how serverless architectures enable smaller, cost-effective, and scalable function deployments and learn how to manage operations with cloud-provided metrics and logs.

PaaS deploy applications. Serverless goes even further and enables the deployment of individual functions.

Thereby, Serverless allows even smaller deployments than with PaaS. A REST service can be divided into a variety of functions, one per HTTP method and resource.

The advantages of Serverless are similar to those of PaaS:

  • A high degree of abstraction and thus relatively simple deployment.
  • Serverless functions
