Serverless is by all means one of the fastest growing trends amongst developers and with good reason. It solves a lot of problems that traditional servers face, problems like the scalability or the ever-growing problem of high hosting bills.
The technology is new in the sense that it’s only now available to the masses at a decent cost, but cloud computing like function as a service and backend as a service providers have been around for years, passing the test of time as a viable option for small developers to large-scale enterprise solutions.
While there a lot of benefits to switching to serverless technology I think that the biggest one might be the fact that your developers won’t have to keep thinking about the infrastructure, server configuration, security concerns, updates, etc. Not worrying about what happens under the hood lets him concentrate on the business logic. A recent study pointed out that by going serverless you save an average of 4 developer workdays per month.
They say pictures are worth 1000 words. Well, here’s a little snapshot of what serverless is all about. And remember kids, sharing is caring.
I’m glad you asked. There’s a ton of information on the interwebs about the wonders that is serverless—so much information that it might seem hard to know where to start. Well, that’s what this article is all about. I’ll make a list of the most important information on serverless and the best tutorials updated regularly.
Below you’ll find a list of tutorials meant for the newcomers. The ones looking to take their first journey into serverless and need a place to start.
Security and privacy have always been a concern to site owners, regardless of the technology behind the website. Here’s a list of the best tutorials and articles on this very subject.
Once you get familiarised with serverless you’ll find yourself wanting more. Below you’ll find a list of articles that should quench your thirst for serverless knowledge. You’ll find that not every article in here will solve a difficult problem but I still added them to this list because they are comprehensive.
I pledge to keep this list updated as much as I can but I welcome anyone wanting to lend a helping hand. Of course, in order to fast track the development you could also contact serverless consulting companies that can share their experience with you.
Today we are announcing a new, updated pricing model and the end of free tier for Dashbird.
In this article, we’re covering 4 tips for AWS Lambda optimization for production. Covering error handling, memory provisioning, monitoring, performance, and more.
In this article we’ll go through the ins and outs of AWS Lambda pricing model, how it works, what additional charges you might be looking at and what’s in the fine print.
Dashbird was born out of our own need for an enhanced serverless debugging and monitoring tool, and we take pride in being developers.
Dashbird gives us a simple and easy to use tool to have peace of mind and know that all of our Serverless functions are running correctly. We are instantly aware now if there’s a problem. We love the fact that we have enough information in the Slack notification itself to take appropriate action immediately and know exactly where the issue occurred.
Thanks to Dashbird the time to discover the occurrence of an issue reduced from 2-4 hours to a matter of seconds or minutes. It also means that hundreds of dollars are saved every month.
Great onboarding: it takes just a couple of minutes to connect an AWS account to an organization in Dashbird. The UI is clean and gives a good overview of what is happening with the Lambdas and API Gateways in the account.
I mean, it is just extremely time-saving. It’s so efficient! I don’t think it’s an exaggeration or dramatic to say that Dashbird has been a lifesaver for us.
Dashbird provides an easier interface to monitor and debug problems with our Lambdas. Relevant logs are simple to find and view. Dashbird’s support has been good, and they take product suggestions with grace.
Great UI. Easy to navigate through CloudWatch logs. Simple setup.
Dashbird helped us refine the size of our Lambdas, resulting in significantly reduced costs. We have Dashbird alert us in seconds via email when any of our functions behaves abnormally. Their app immediately makes the cause and severity of errors obvious.
