Documentation
Function as a Service (FaaS) is a cloud computing service that allows users to run pieces of code in response to events or triggers in a serverless deployment. FaaS abstracts the underlying infrastructure and allows developers to focus on writing and deploying functions that respond to specific events or triggers. FaaS is a pay-as-you-go service, with users only paying for the compute time used to run the functions. FaaS is ideal for event-driven applications, such as IoT applications, real-time data processing, and webhooks.
