Serverless computing brings a paradigm shift in how applications are built, deployed and managed.
Best of 2023: Microservices Sucks — Amazon Goes Back to Basics
In this week’s #TheLongView: Amazon Prime Video has ditched its use of microservices-cum-serverless, reverting to a traditional, monolithic architecture. It vastly improved the workload’s cost and scalability.
Cutting Costs, Boosting Efficiency: The Economic Benefits of Framework-Defined Infrastructure
Understanding the role of framework-defined infrastructure in defining and automating infrastructure—and its impact on the development experience in open source frameworks—is crucial.
8 Hot Takes: Will We See a Monolithic Renaissance?
Is the DevOps world slowly backing away from microservices and to a monolithic renaissance? After years of proselytization about the benefits (Flexibility! Resilience! Support faster release speeds!) of microservices and serverless architecture, there are signs of a potential backlash against the singularly fragmented microservices architectural approach. The argument in favor of rolling back to monolithic […]
Running Serverless in Production: 7 Best Practices for DevOps
Serverless in production refers to the deployment and use of serverless architecture in a live, production environment. In this context, serverless refers to a cloud computing paradigm where the cloud provider manages the infrastructure and allocates resources as needed to run and scale applications and services. In a serverless production environment, applications and services are […]
Codenotary Extends Dynamic SBOM Reach to Serverless Computing Platforms
Codenotary has extended the reach of its platform for automatically generating software bills of materials (SBOMs) to serverless computing platforms running software constructed using functions. Codenotary CTO Dennis Zimmer said because serverless apps are dynamically created, it’s not possible to generate SBOMs using traditional approaches. The TrueSBOM platform makes it possible to create an SBOM […]
Cisco Adds Open Source Tool to Validate Serverless Functions
Cisco has launched an open source project, dubbed FunctionClarity, that makes it possible to verify signatures before code is deployed in a serverless computing environment. Vijoy Pandey, vice president of emerging technologies and incubation at Cisco, said that one of the application security issues that has emerged in serverless computing environments is the lack of […]
Momento Launches Elastic Cloud Caching Service
Momento this week emerged from stealth to launch an elastic Serverless Cache platform that promises to improve the performance of applications running on databases deployed in the cloud while simultaneously reducing costs. Fresh from raising $15 million in seed funding, Momento CEO and co-founder Khawaja Shams said Serverless Cache gives IT teams access to a […]
Alleviating Developer Workflow Headaches by Moving to the Cloud
Leaders in tech make one common mistake when it comes to serverless and cloud computing: They want to migrate their current environment exactly as it is to the cloud. That’s about as limiting as planning a flight path along the road network and deciding the route based on street-level traffic. You can do it, but […]
Pulumi Extends Infrastructure-as-Code Reach
At its online PulumiUP conference, Pulumi announced it will make its Pulumi CrossCode translation technology available to third parties and DevOps teams. The technology was developed to integrate a wide range of programming languages with its infrastructure-as-code (IaC) platform. The company also announced it has added support for YAML—widely used to configure Kubernetes environments—as well […]
