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.

Centralized content governance has accelerated multi-channel publishing and empowered business teams
I wanted to highlight that Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus could be improved further by expanding its enterprise-grade analytics and reporting, providing more out-of-the-box integrations with commonly used enterprise platforms, and simplifying some advanced configuration and administration workflows. Enhanced documentation, migration guidance, and more pre-built templates for large-scale implementations would also help teams adopt the platform faster and reduce the learning curve. Another area for improvement would be making enterprise administration and governance even more intuitive, particularly for organizations with large teams and complex permission structures. More advanced workflow automation, stronger monitoring and observability capabilities, and additional AI-assisted content management features would further improve productivity. A broader ecosystem of integrations and clearer best practice guidance for enterprise-scale deployments would also make adoption easier. One additional area would be improving the overall enterprise user experience. A more intuitive administration dashboard, better deployment and migration tooling, and stronger monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities would make it easier to manage large-scale environments. It would also be valuable to have more detailed cost and usage visibility, stronger documentation for advanced enterprise scenarios, and more pre-built integrations with common enterprise identity, data, and workflow platforms.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Serverless has positively impacted my organization because I can deploy without any downtime in the majority of cases."
"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."
"Serverless is a great tool for every software engineer, and if any software engineer has not used this tool, they are lacking knowledge and a great opportunity."
"Previously, when we were deploying it on VPS, our whole day was spent on setting up a VPS and setting up all the CI/CD pipelines, but with Serverless it is instant and in just 10 to 15 minutes you are up and running."
"In terms of time or cost saved compared to before using Serverless, I save approximately 60 percent of my development time because everything is very lightweight and gives me the freedom to work within Serverless."
"Serverless offers easy scalability whenever I want it, with no problem when there are many requests."
"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 by making us more agile in giving releases, which has benefited my teams by allowing us to continuously maintain our Node packages and different scripts, which are now more easily manageable."
"Overall, Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus is a strong option for organizations looking for a flexible, cloud-native, headless CMS, with an API-first architecture, scalability, and content governance capabilities that are particularly valuable for modern enterprise environments."
"CMS Plus has impacted my organization positively because it gives us the ability to see growth and receive good customer feedback."
 

Cons

"I would say in the debugging, we could maybe improve or in monitoring."
"Serverless can be improved with more usage videos."
"The biggest challenges I have faced while adopting or using Serverless include the different syntax, syntactical understanding, and the steep learning curve with team members."
"Sometimes we see old results instead of new results when events trigger."
"Serverless is not completely effective for large-scale applications."
"Serverless is pretty much stable, but I believe the only downside is when it has to do some kind of cold warming, which might actually take some time."
"Serverless could be improved if we had more flexibility in how we use memory and could manage memory usage ourselves, especially for background tasks."
"The scalability of Serverless is limited; as you increase your code, it is not scalable, and we need to think out of the box to solve several problems."
"I wanted to highlight that Webiny Enterprise CMS Plus could be improved further by expanding its enterprise-grade analytics and reporting, providing more out-of-the-box integrations with commonly used enterprise platforms, and simplifying some advanced configuration and administration workflows."
