Overview of this book

Serverless computing has emerged as a mainstream paradigm in both cloud and on-premises computing, with AWS Lambda playing a pivotal role in shaping the Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) landscape. However, with the explosion of serverless technologies and vendors, it has become increasingly challenging to comprehend the foundational services and their offerings. Architecting Cloud Native Serverless Solutions lays a strong foundation for understanding the serverless landscape and technologies in a vendor-agnostic manner. You'll learn how to select the appropriate cloud vendors and technologies based on your specific needs. In addition, you'll dive deep into the serverless services across AWS, GCP, Azure, and Cloudflare followed by open source serverless tools such as Knative, OpenFaaS, and OpenWhisk, along with examples. You'll explore serverless solutions on Kubernetes that can be deployed on both cloud-hosted clusters and on-premises environments, with real-world use cases. Furthermore, you'll explore development frameworks, DevOps approaches, best practices, security considerations, and design principles associated with serverless computing. By the end of this serverless book, you'll be well equipped to solve your business problems by using the appropriate serverless vendors and technologies to build efficient and cost-effective serverless systems independently.

While AWS always had the upper hand in delivering new services and adding new regions, GCP is quickly catching up with its equivalent services. Like AWS powering the Amazon e-commerce business, most of the GCP services have been powering Google’s product arrays, including GSuite, Search, YouTube, and others. This means that they have been battle tested for global workloads and are highly reliable.

It is interesting to note that GCP started with an early version of what could be called a serverless service. Google AppEngine was a trendsetter of its time in running application workloads without requiring any services to be provisioned. It was a shift from the tried and tested web hosting model and gave a lot of freedom to developers. When AWS became a formidable force in the cloud and GCP was not very fast to catch up in the initial years, the serverless trend was categorically set by AWS...
