Introduction
Serverless Architecture (or No-Server Architecture) is a cloud computing model where developers do not have to manage servers. Instead, everything is operated by automated management services provided by the cloud provider, reducing the operational burden.
What are the advantages of using Serverless?
- Auto-scaling: The system will automatically adjust resources to meet traffic demands, regardless of whether the traffic is large or small. This ensures that your application always operates stably without worrying about upgrading or adjusting the infrastructure.
- Pay-per-use: You only pay for the resources that are actually used, such as the number of API requests or the execution time of a Lambda function. This helps optimize costs, especially for applications with uneven traffic.
- No server management: You don’t need to manage, maintain, or update servers. AWS will handle all of this, allowing you to focus more on developing and improving the application.
- Strong integration with other services: Serverless often integrates well with many other cloud services, such as databases, storage, and AI/ML services, helping you build comprehensive applications without needing to combine multiple different technologies.
These advantages make Serverless an attractive choice for building modern applications, especially when you need a flexible, cost-effective, and easy-to-manage system.
