Advantage of going Serverless for app development

As we think about an App Development📱, we mostly think about economic factor 💰 and easiest way to get into market 👥.So we choose the team 👩‍💻👨‍💻 and technology for development based on that. As we go forward, one of our main headache would be server management based on load and activities.No more worries, here is your answer for that - Serverless Architecture.

Serverless may have a confusing name and might have people believe that it is “server-less” but it is still an impressive architect with various benefits. From a business’ perspective, the best advantage of going serverless is reduced time-to-market. Others being, less operational costs, no infrastructural management and efficiency. As all the architectures, there’s no doubt that the success and viability of a serverless approach too, depends on the requirements of the business. Despite having many advantages, it cannot solve every problem. Therefore, be careful before adopting a serverless approach.

There are cases when it makes more sense, both from a cost perspective and from a system architecture perspective, to use dedicated servers that are either self-managed or offered as a service. For instance, large applications with a fairly constant, predictable workload may require a traditional setup, and in such cases the traditional setup is probably less expensive. Additionally, it may be prohibitively difficult to migrate legacy applications to a new infrastructure with an entirely different architecture .
