SERVERLESS COMPUTING: REVOLUTIONIZING CLOUD APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
Keywords:
Serverless Computing, Cloud Architecture, Event-Driven Execution, Microservices, ScalabilityAbstract
This comprehensive article explores the paradigm shift brought about by serverless computing in the cloud architecture landscape. It delves into the core concepts, key characteristics, and significant advantages of serverless computing, including its event-driven execution, automatic scaling, and pay-per-use pricing model. The article thoroughly examines the serverless workflow and highlights various practical applications across industries. With a focus on numerical data and real-world case studies, it demonstrates how serverless computing is revolutionizing application development, deployment, and scaling strategies, while significantly reducing operational overhead and costs.
