Serverless

Serverless computing has many benefits for application development in the cloud. It’s not surprising that given its promise to lower costs, reduce operational complexity, and increase DevOps efficiencies, serverless adoption is gaining more momentum every year. Serverless is now seeing an estimated adoption rate in over 50% of all public cloud customers. However, one of the prevailing challenges for customers using serverless has been performance, specifically “cold starts.” Here, I want to explore all the popular remedies available to reduce cold starts, their benefits, and pitfalls, and finally, how a new autonomous concurrency solution from Sedai may be the answer to solving cold starts once and for all.

Sedai is a launch partner for AWS for their new Telemetry API for AWS Lambda. Sedai uses the telemetry API to improve availability for Lambda users of Sedai’s autonomous cloud management platform by providing additional insights and signals on Lambda functions on a cost-effective basis.

Div Shekhar, AWS Solution Architect, shares how AWS customers Coca-Cola, Nielsen Marketing Cloud and Lego are driving agility, increasing performance and improving security with a serverless strategy. Suresh Mathew, founder of Sedai, also shares the benefits of continuous and autonomous management of Lambda environments.

Get all the benefits of serverless with provisioned concurrency when it’s intelligently managed for you. Sedai will adjust based on your seasonality, dependencies, traffic, and anything else it is seeing in the platform.
