Think OUTSIDE the Container

With the latest news of Amazon Prime moving from serverless to a container, there are still many use-cases where serverless is better.

Serverless is best suited for use-cases where the request rate is not too high. Many applications fall under this category.
For example

  • Enterprise applications, which are used by employees within an organization.
  • Customer Review Apis in an ECommerce platform.
  • Forgot password Apis
  • Update UserProfile Apis

Moving such use cases to serverless saves money by paying only for the used resource.

Though from an infrastructure point of view, serverless is a better option for many scenarios. There is still a problem with developing and maintaining the code for serverless applications. SOMOD helps developers better organize serverless applications.

Think outside the containers and try https://somod.dev for your serverless applications.
