What is Serverless architecture?

   

Serverless computing enables developers to build applications faster as infrastructure will be managed by the service provider(Azure). With serverless applications, the cloud service provider automatically provisions, scales and manages the infrastructure required to run the code.

Advantage of Serverless architecture: The following top 3 points will be managed by the service providers for you.

1. No Infrastructure management
2. Automatic Scalability
3. An efficient way to use azure resources so you will save more money here
4. Serverless applications reduce the operations dependencies on each development cycle, increasing development teams’ agility to deliver more in less time.

Bonus Points: Following are the azure serverless compute/services

• Serverless functions
• Serverless workflows(Logic Apps)
• Serverless API gateway
• Serverless Kubernetes
• Serverless application environments
