Abstract
Serverless programming is slowly being adopted by mainstream development. Fundamentally, serverless programming means that the server or infrastructure is being managed by the infra/cloud provider, but the code still exists and runs on some machine. As a developer, you should be concerned about solving the problem and deploying it. Based on the scale demand, the infrastructure provider or framework is responsible for managing the number of active nodes running the supplied code at any time. In other words, allocation of machines is dynamic and managed by the infra provider. There are quite a few advantages as well as concerns related to being serverless. Let’s look at some of them.
