Serverless
From birth
Is given the mission of changing cloud computing
however
Something that often looks more powerful
The more difficulties you encounter when landing
ServerlessNo exception**
Pain point 1: Manufacturer lock
Whether individual users or enterprise customers
Everyone doesn’t want to be locked by the manufacturer
Instead, they let themselves choose services and products
But customers who choose serverless
Will face higher migration costs
because
Serverless is not like container technology
He does not have the industry standard and general technical framework like k8s
Manufacturers implement serverless in different ways
Pain point 2: black box, the customer has no control
Serverless shields the operation and maintenance of infrastructure
But it also blocks customers’ control over infrastructure
Can’t see or touch
Do you believe in yourself more, or do you deliver it all to the manufacturer
This is a multiple-choice question and a belief
Pain point 3: the cost is not easy to control
Serverless
Reduce costs by reducing your idle resources
But his billing method is different
Charge on request
Customers need to practice constantly
To find the best balance between performance and cost
Pain point 4: work habits change too much and there are too many restrictions
Serverless
Completely changed the working mode of R & D and operation and maintenance
Microservices
It is to split giant applications into micro services
Serverless
Is to split the application into functions
The finer the granularity, the greater the complexity of operation and maintenance control
It’s like watching magic
It used to be a card in hand
Now it’s the one behind
It always takes time to adapt
although
Serverless has been implemented at the computing level
Hundred milliseconds
Start up and capacity expansion
But behind the calculation is
Entire infrastructure
Middleware, database, storage
It is difficult to achieve second scale expansion
This affects
Serverless core link application
Pain point 5: too new, lack of practice and systematic education
This is the stage that new things must go through
There are not many serverless experts around
The path of systematic learning is not clear
Unlike other mature technologies
There are books, courses and educational institutions
There are also a large number of old drivers and skilled workers
Although there are so many difficulties
But the development speed is still very fast
First look at a foreign data
It can be seen that the penetration rate abroad has been very high
Domestic development is also in full swing
Various conferences and third-party evaluations frequently appear in serverless
There are more and more customers and scenarios using} serverless
of course
Vendor’s serverless service
In terms of performance, function, experience and price
Continuous upgrading and optimization
Is the key to the development of serverless
for example
Alibaba cloud
Function to calculate FC and serverless application engine SAE
In the past year
Did this
🚴♂️
All the efforts of the past year
Not enough to solve all the pain points
But, as long as
In the right direction, the trend is accelerating
The charm of serverless
It will attract more customers and developers
Become the inevitable trend of cloud computing
In the coming {year
I wish you all the best
Want more, don’t want less
