  • 8m 18s
    In this video, you’ll learn more about the evolution of technologies that evolves serverless mindset, along with the benefits of serverless. You’ll learn that architecturally, serverless applications are Internet-based systems where the application development doesn’t use the usual server process. Rather, they rely solely on a combination of third-party services, client-side logic, and service-hosted remote procedure calls. They use third-party services to accomplish tasks traditionally taken care of by servers. FREE ACCESS

    3.  Service and Serverless Architectures
    7m 30s
    In this video, you’ll learn more about serverless architecture. You’ll start by learning what service-oriented architecture is. Service-oriented architecture, or SOA, is a software architecture style where an application composed of discrete and loosely-coupled software agents perform the required functions. SOA has two main roles, as a service provider and a service consumer. An SOA application is designed and built to ensure that the modules can be integrated seamlessly and easily reused. FREE ACCESS

    4.  Traits of Serverless Application Architectures
    7m 28s
    In this video, you’ll learn more about the changes in serverless application architectures. You’ll view scenarios to help identify the changing dimensions of application operation and usability. First, you’ll learn the important traits of serverless architecture. You’ll learn it is relatively straightforward to start running code in a serverless architecture. Serverless has a low barrier-to-entry. Serverless architecture is hostless in the sense you no longer deal directly with servers when we implement serverless. FREE ACCESS

    5.  Use Cases for Serverless Compute Products
    7m 21s
    In this video, you’ll learn more about the common use cases for serverless compute products, along with their associated benefits. You’ll start by looking at prominent use cases that can be realized with serverless computing. First, you’ll look at auto-scaling websites and APIs. Serverless websites and applications can be written and deployed without setting up infrastructure. This allows you to launch a fully functional site in days. FREE ACCESS

    6.  Containerized and Serverless Implementation
    9m 11s
    In this video, you’ll learn more about the differences between containerized and serverless implementation, along with key criteria that help enterprises decide and adopt the appropriate strategy. You’ll start by exploring what containers are. Containers are a lightweight virtualization architecture that allows for deploying individual applications within portable and isolated environments. Because containers share system resources with the host server, rather than emulating a virtual operating machine, they are more efficient than virtual machines. FREE ACCESS
