Publisher's Synopsis
No Servers, No Stress - Just Scalable, Event-Driven Applications.
Serverless Computing: Benefits and Use Cases is your essential guide to understanding the serverless paradigm-a modern cloud-native approach that allows developers to focus purely on writing code without managing infrastructure.
This book explores the core benefits of serverless computing, such as auto-scaling, cost-efficiency, and faster time to market, while walking you through real-world use cases across AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, Google Cloud Functions, and more.
Whether you're building APIs, automating workflows, or creating data-driven applications, serverless architecture enables you to do more with less operational overhead.
