A Serverless Way to Build Applications (document)

A serverless approach to building applications allows developers to create software without managing physical servers or infrastructure. Instead, cloud providers automatically handle the hosting, scaling, and maintenance of the application's resources. Developers write individual functions that run only when needed, such as in response to user actions or data changes, and are billed based on usage. This method simplifies development, reduces operational overhead, and provides flexibility, allowing teams to focus on application features rather than infrastructure management. In essence, serverless computing enables efficient, scalable, and cost-effective application deployment without the traditional server responsibilities.
