Containers and Serverless—Rivals or Cohorts?

This article will try to decode these technologies and explore how developers should consider containers or serverless functions within their tech stack. For example, if your application has a longer startup time, then a container would suit the need better. Highly efficient stateless functions that need to scale up and down massively would benefit from running serverless functions.

Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions with Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java

Moving application workloads to multi- and hybrid cloud platforms causes more carbon dioxide emissions, although better scalability and performance. Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java enable developers to solve the global climate changes by reducing carbon dioxide emissions by natively native features with milliseconds first boot time, tiny resident set size memory and scalability.

Designing Secure Tenant Isolation in Python for Serverless Apps

Software as a Service (SaaS) has become a very common way to deliver software today. While providing the benefits of easy access to users without the overhead of having to manage the operations themselves, this flips the paradigm and places the responsibility on software providers for maintaining ironclad SLAs, as well as all of the security and data privacy requirements.

Serverless Solution to Offload Polling for Asynchronous Operation Status Using Amazon S3

This article proposes a solution to redirect the polling part to the Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) - a highly available, scalable, and secured object storage service managed by Amazon Web Services public cloud provider (AWS). It will present a serverless implementation using AWS Lambda functions, but this is not mandatory if you want to use S3.
