Learn from the lessons of early serverless adopters
Serverless, defined here as an operational model that eliminates the burdens of server and infrastructure management, has been widely adopted by the three companies covered in this paper: iRobot, a robotics-focused technology company; Alma Media, a European media company; and Fender, the American music giant. These companies first considered serverless for a variety of reasons –achieving rapid release cycles, lowering costs, scaling efficiently, and the ability to attract and retain top talent. Each of these companies also arrived at a similar conclusion: the decision to build ‘serverless first.’
