Serverless Computing

Serverless computing is a method of providing backend services on an as-used basis. Servers are still used, but a company that gets backend services from a serverless vendor is charged based on usage, not a fixed amount of bandwidth or number of servers.

You can think of serverless computing as an [abstraction] over the underlying infrastructure, allowing you to focus on the code.

Examples

• AWS Lambda
• Google Cloud Functions
• Laravel Vapor
