Introduction to Serverless

December 06, 2019 at 06:00 PM

Serverless has become the new style of coding, and it can be used to offload your mobile apps without incurring unnecessary costs. Get an intro into serverless/function-as-a-service/cloud functions technologies and learn why startups and enterprises are so excited about using it.

This is a hands-on workshop style meetup - please come with your laptop. You will be able to write up your first serverless function in IBM Cloud using a free account. The created serverless function will use IBM Watson AI service.

In addition we will be demoing JS and Swift Serverless Functions, we will be discussing solutions with Kafka and Docker, and covering:

  • Who are the players in the Serverless ecosystem?
  • What are some use cases for Serverless solutions - with using a Docker as the Polyglot action
  • Best practices for the Serverless architecture for Message Oriented Middleware events
  • Whether going Serverless is really faster, better, cheaper for developers and organizations

If you want to learn more please come and join us for this workshop!
