This is Part 2 of a series defining Serverless Services in terms of five common traits, which John Chapin and I introduced in our free ebook from O’Reilly — What is Serverless?
In case you’re new to my articles: Serverless Architecture is a new approach to building systems in the cloud. It incorporates Backends-as-a-Service (BaaS) — vendor-hosted, highly scalable, data and logic components to handle our needs for databases, messaging platforms, user management, and more.
Our mission at Symphonia is to bring the benefits of Serverless computing to our clients, and the industry. But what is Serverless?
In this free e-book that we’ve produced in collaboration with O’Reilly, we explain what Serverless means and what its significant benefits are.
Last week I gave my second O’Reilly Software Architecture Conference keynote, giving an introduction to Serverless with some new thoughts that John Chapin and I have been mulling over the last few months, including unifying themes across various Serverless products.
John made the trek out to beautiful Portland, Oregon to speak about Fearless JVM Lambdas at the 2017 Clojure/west conference. The talk included an overview of Serverless, and a deep dive into using the Clojure programming language with AWS Lambda’s JVM runtime.
Spring — a time of flowers blooming, days lengthening, temperatures warming, and, for the first time, a conference speaking tour by your friends at Symphonia!

In non-Serverless systems, we can use the baseline performance of a system to make predictions about how that system will behave in the future. Absent changes to the underlying infrastructure and external dependencies, that baseline performance doesn’t change quickly, or drastically.
