Provides stable performance and scalability but not intuitive for data modeling
Overall, I would rate it around six out of ten. The training environment wasn't very intuitive, but maybe with more use, it will get better. We need to learn to navigate it. So, there is a potential learning curve in this tool. I use it once in a blue moon, and not very frequently because I have not found it very intuitive.

Serverless workflows have boosted rapid AWS development but still need better CI and automation
Serverless has many advantages, and it is very easy to handle with a cloud solution. However, there are a few concerns about the limitations. Especially when I work with Lambdas, there are maximum Lambda timeouts. Likewise, there are several things from Serverless, such as maximum file uploads. Serverless can be improved by addressing the challenges faced when we have the first infrastructure. Sometimes it is hard because we need to manually create things such as Cognito pools. While 90 percent of the time is automated, more automation would be better. If Serverless provided CI/CD capabilities, that would also be great, as currently it only allows for manual deployments. Additionally, when working with cloud services, Serverless allows the use of LocalStack or Serverless Dev, but I think Serverless Dev might need simplification for easy access without organization registration. When considering needed improvements, I get frustrated with Lambda time and similar issues, which are actually not related to Serverless but rather are AWS issues. However, when discussing Serverless, the main points I see require improvement from the Serverless end.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Snapshots are the most valuable feature."
"It is a stable solution."
"Serverless has saved me a lot of money and time in my organization."
"The best features that Serverless offers include being without the server, which itself says we don't need to depend on the server maintenance, and so we don't need to worry about these server things."
"My advice to others looking into using Serverless is that you can use it if you want to save money, if you don't want to manage servers, if you only want to be charged for the amount of time you use, and if you want to run code and ad hoc tasks."
"I can share specific metrics indicating Serverless's positive impact: I achieved 100% uptime, an impressive feat compared to traditional servers that often experience downtime during peak usage."
"Serverless has positively impacted my organization because I can deploy without any downtime in the majority of cases."
"Serverless has positively impacted my organization as it has been a good experience for the team overall because it is a new framework that we had to learn, and cost-wise, it helps because moving to Serverless means you do not have resources spinning all the time."
"There is a huge impact as my traffic gets auto-adjusted, I do not have to worry about whether my server is capable of handling the traffic or not, Serverless servers are much more capable, and I just need to pay for whatever I am using."
"Serverless has positively impacted my organization by shifting our focus from infrastructure management to pure product delivery."
 

Cons

"The training environment wasn't very intuitive, but maybe with more use, it will get better."
"Scalability as a standalone system is good, given the information that has been described inside Ardoq. But not the scalability as a third-party system or with integration with other systems. Because in this direction, the scalability is about zero for Ardoq."
"Serverless can be improved by effectively handling large scale applications, as large scale applications would save more money."
"Improving Serverless is a difficult question because I am not deeply familiar with Serverless, so it is really difficult for me to judge."
"I believe Serverless can be improved as I have faced some pain points and challenges."
"We have been using this framework for a long time but now feel the cost is expensive, so we need to improve in this area."
"Serverless can be improved with more usage videos."
"Transitioning from servers to Serverless results in a price increase due to the additional maintenance and patches AWS provides, but if costs could be reduced, more customers would consider moving to Serverless architecture."
"I choose eight out of ten because to go ahead with Serverless, we need to do YAML file creation and other format file creation."
"I struggled with wanting to put breakpoints throughout the code and then use the debugger."
