Serverless computing is true on-demand computing. Software is in the cloud and waits for an event to occur that will kick it off, causing resources to be provisioned and the software to be run. Serverless enables the cloud to be used more efficiently.\u00a0 Major cloud vendors offer serverless options, like Amazon’s Lambda, Microsoft’s Azure Functions, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry.<\/p>\n

Nick Rockwell<\/a>,\u00a0New York Times CTO, said that<\/a> “Serverless makes products both reliable and scalable. In the long term, economically, it’s going to be a far better, far cheaper, far more efficient way to go.”<\/p>\n

Steve Deasy<\/a>, Head of Platform at Atlassian, said that<\/a> “serverless frameworks will see a spike in popularity, which will be accompanied by supportive tooling from the major cloud vendors. In addition, data-driven applications will continue to gain popularity, as will the demand for engineer support in the form of tools, infrastructure and wrangling capabilities. Lastly, in ‘Mortal Kombat’ style, Kubernetes will deliver a fatality to existing platforms.”<\/p>\n

Kalyan Ramanathan<\/a>, Vice-President at Sumo Logic, said that<\/a> “the whole idea of serverless is that it moves microservices into the future by entirely skipping over containers and DevOps. The fact that one in four developers are already using serverless sends a strong message to anyone who follows the arc of application architecture and adoption. The message is that IT leaders are already talking about DevOps, but serverless takes IT to an entirely new world\u2013NoOps\u2013where applications run in the cloud without an infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n
