Cloud-native application development embraces continual integration and continual deployment
Building modern software functionality directly for advanced public cloud platforms is rapidly disrupting entire industries. Developers are driving this disruption by freeing themselves of the traditional server infrastructure while continually integrating, developing, improving, and deploying new functionality instantaneously in the cloud.
Cloud-native software and applications can provide a strategic competitive advantage by allowing the release of key capabilities much faster than your rivals. Also, by moving to a serverless computing model, organizations operate at a fraction of the cost of managing a traditional server-based environment.
Serverless Computing | Function PaaS | Event Driven Computing
Serverless computing and fPaaS enable developers to spend their time writing code rather than having to shift their focus periodically to maintain or update the platform running their software and applications. Setup, capacity planning, and server management are all invisible, with automated scaling to meet real-time workload demands based on tasks that are short-lived and stateless.
Developers can provision and consume the exact resources for each event-driven task. Also, by using a programming model based on triggers and requests, they can enable serverless applications to respond immediately and connect to other microservices seamlessly.
Because organizations pay for only the resources they use during the time the code is running, in many cases milliseconds each, the cost is reduced dramatically to support the environment.
By 2021, 90% of enterprises using IaaS will also use some serverless PaaS in production, up from 10% at YE17. – Gartner
Event Driven Computing: Benefits and expected outcomes
- Entire development and testing environments can be up and running in minutes.
- Scale automatically on demand and ensure high availability.
- Pay only for compute resources while your function code is running.
- No server maintenance, management, or patching of operating systems.
- Developers focus 100% of their time on code and driving new capabilities to market faster.
