31/03/2021
Discover how Serverless technology is revolutionizing web development, reducing costs and increasing application efficiency. All while you only pay for what you use.
Why is serverless development transforming the industry?
In the competitive world of web development, serverless technology is emerging as a revolutionary solution that promises to transform the way we build and deploy applications. Although its name suggests "serverless", the reality is much more interesting and beneficial for your business.
Understanding the traditional vs. serverless model
The traditional server model
Historically, businesses have relied on traditional servers: physical or virtual machines that require:
- Significant initial investment
- Ongoing maintenance costs
- Fixed payments regardless of usage
- Specialized technical staff
The Serverless Revolution
The Serverless approach revolutionizes this traditional model. Instead of worrying about infrastructure, your code runs in environments managed by industry-leading providers. Imagine having all the power of a server, but paying only when you need it.
