hype! serverless 101 why? why not? serverless @ bustle tools
None
The people who are serving websites on Lambda or something
are not only doing it wrong, they are wasting money while locking themselves in to an architecture that doesn't fit their app - @scrollaway on HN
doesn’t scale not production ready too slow too expensive
None
serverless for 99% of user requests
10-20 million calls per day
< 200ms
< $$$
Serverless 101

…but what if we abstracted them away?
as a Service
Where does the business logic go?

const express = require(‘express’) const fn = require(./lambda-fn/) const app
= express() app.get('/', (req, res) => { fn.handler(null, null, (err, result) => { res.json(result) }) }); app.listen(3000)
cold functions
const data = loadBigData() // Takes 15s module.exports.handler = function(e,ctx,cb){
processBigData(data, cb) }
