If running a major application has become very difficult because of the problems its monolithic architecture creates, Serverless can be the solution. Take a read at the benefits you can expect and the challenges you need to overcome to make this option work out.
Why Can Serverless Often Be a Great Option to Improve and Enhance a Monolithic Web Application?
All major monolithic software solutions start small. Some of them are not even planned to grow big, but do so in the longer run. Others are planned big from the outset but start small with an MVP.
In either case, during the nascent stage of a Web development project, it is impossible to properly allow for all the functionality that will need to be added later. Moreover, it then becomes impossible to do this seamlessly later as these monoliths grow into massive-scaled, hulking creations that are difficult to expand, upgrade, or test.
When deploying a build starts taking a half hour or more and maintaining the solution turns disruptive and too irksome to the company’s clients, the need for change becomes too pressing to ignore. Shifting to a serverless architecture is then regarded as a natural solution, and rightfully so. However, it is vital to know not only the numerous benefits of Serverless computing, but also the risks it brings. One can then eliminate or mitigate these risks and make Serverless even more of an effective solution.
Let’s take a look at some of the ways to make Serverless development a great option for your Web application development project.
