Serverless Computing: Benefits and Use Cases

Serverless architecture is becoming popular due to the rise of event-driven computing models. Developers in today’s cloud environment need scalable, flexible, fast, and efficient systems that can respond to user actions in real-time.

Serverless computing, alongside Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, Function as a Service, and Software as a Service, is shaping the way developers build and deploy application codes without provisioning or managing servers or back-end infrastructure.

Franklin Okeke, writing for TechRepublic Premium, explores the key benefits and use cases of serverless computing to help you understand how this technology can transform your development process.

BENEFITS OF SERVERLESS COMPUTING

Serverless computing, microservices, and containers are foundational technologies driving the development of cloud-native applications. According to a recent survey from IT solutions provider Liquid Web, more than 50% of respondents saw multiple benefits from serverless architecture implementation. This shows its importance in the software development cycle. Let’s take a look at some of its key advantages.

Reduced operational costs

Operational costs can quickly add up for businesses, especially when maintaining and managing servers. Serverless computing can reduce this cost since the concept follows a pay-per-execution model, meaning you can only pay for the computing time you use. This is a huge benefit over cloud computing, where users are charged on an hourly basis for running virtual machines.
