AWS Serverless Applications

August 30, 2023 ยท View on GitHub

AWS launched the entire serverless applications category, with the release of its AWS Lambda (functions) service in 2014. Modern AWS Serverless architectures now use a majority of serverless AWS services (for compute, file storage, data and much more).
An example serverless AWS application architecture (for genomic data processing is shown below).
