Serverless is one of those topics we can have an entire season just surrounding this one architecture option. We tried packing as much as possible to one short talk but we can (should?) probably do another follow up talk about advanced Serverless options we didn't touch this time.

We started off talking about how it is perceived by many, then went into what it really is, and even some of its inner workings intricacies or what's "under the hood".

Some of what's mentioned:
AWS Lambda, Firecracker, Fargate vs Lambda, containers, KVMs, frameworks, local helpers, VPC connectivity, concurrency, throttling, application design and considerations (and MORE)...

Useful links:

• Firecracker
• AWS Lambda
• Serverless Framework
• Serverless Land
• AWS SAM
• Omer's blog post about many of these including the new networking scheme
• LocalStack
• Moto (Mock AWS Services)
