There&#8217;s no servers to manage or provision at all. This includes nothing that would be bare metal, nothing that&#8217;s virtual, nothing that&#8217;s a container &#8212; anything that involves you managing a host, patching a host, or dealing with anything on an operating system level, is not something you should have to do in the serverless world.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What are the <a href=\"https:\/\/sdtimes.com\/cloud\/analyst-view-some-faqs-on-serverless-computing\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/sdtimes.com\/cloud\/analyst-view-some-faqs-on-serverless-computing\/\">benefits of serverless computing<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Run code with no need to manage infrastructure, like servers, VMs, or containers<\/li><li>Environment scales compute, storage and networking automatically based on demand<\/li><li>Provides monitoring, logging and debug facilities<\/li><li>Cost savings by removing the need to maintain and manage infrastructure<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/brentraustin\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/brentraustin\/\">Brent Austin<\/a>, cloud platform strategy architect at Liberty Mutual Insurance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.networkworld.com\/article\/3514188\/serverless-computing-ready-or-not.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.networkworld.com\/article\/3514188\/serverless-computing-ready-or-not.html\">said that<\/a> &#8220;a major benefit of serverless is that it forces you to think about designing your systems in a cloud-native way. If you think about designing applications with a serverless-first mindset, you&#8217;re more likely to implement a cost-effective, scalable, and resilient architecture, without being bound by specific technical choices within that system.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
