You may have noted in my predictive piece in 2018 that I am quite bullish on serverless technology. More specifically, I’m bullish on serverless for the enterprise data center and Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) in the public cloud.
If you’re confused about that distinction, let me provide some quick color, so we’re all on the same page−literally and figuratively.
Serverless is a system. It’s a framework. It’s an event-driven environment in which containers (usually) are loaded and executed based on some condition being triggered. That condition might be an API call or the time of day.
