DevOps for Serverless Applications

By: Shashikant Bangera

Overview of this book

Serverless applications are becoming very popular among developers and are generating a buzz in the tech market. Many organizations struggle with the effective implementation of DevOps with serverless applications. DevOps for Serverless Applications takes you through different DevOps-related scenarios to give you a solid foundation in serverless deployment. You will start by understanding the concepts of serverless architecture and development, and why they are important. Then, you will get to grips with the DevOps ideology and gain an understanding of how it fits into the Serverless Framework. You'll cover deployment framework building and deployment with CI and CD pipelines for serverless applications. You will also explore log management and issue reporting in the serverless environment. In the concluding chapters, you will learn important security tips and best practices for secure pipeline management. By the end of this book, you will be in a position to effectively build a complete CI and CD delivery pipeline with log management for serverless applications.

Chapter 10. DevOps Trends with Serverless Functions

Finally, our journey is coming to an end. Throughout this book, we have looked at various different serverless providers, and various ways to build, deploy, monitor and log the serverless functions and with different service providers. So, how will serverless change the course of DevOps? As we know, with IaaS and PaaS, we need to build the infrastructure, always monitor it, and scale it. We need to use configuration management tools to upgrade the servers from time to time, monitor, log and manage manual scaling and, when you consider serverless, all this does away. So in what direction does DevOps go, when we decide to use serverless ? Well there was a perception that DevOps won't be required if we adopt serverless, but that is not completely true which we have already learned through our chapters, that DevOps does not completely vanish. We still need to version the code, package it, deploy it, and monitor and log it too, but it is still...
