Event–Driven Serverless Architecture Using AWS Lambda
If we think about computing in the Cloud Computing age, our mind is quickly drawn towards containers and virtual machines. For instance, during the development of a production environment with both approaches, we think about the need for upgrading the container and patching the OS. Amazon Web Services (AWS), at the end of the year 2014, announced a new service known as “Lambda” that enables us to focus on business logic rather than infrastructure. Lambda is a serverless compute service that executes your code that is available in the cloud in response to events and accomplishes the entire administration of the computer services automatically. To better understand it, first, let’s understand what is serverless compute service and how does it work. What is Serverless Computing? An architecture where the execution of code is entirely managed by the provider of cloud, instead of the conventional method of building applications and deploying them on servers. It means devel...
