A colleague pointed me at a (now old) article discussing the pros and cons of serverless. It has a great sentence: Your successful monolithic app probably shouldn't become a series of four dozen functions connected to eight gateways, forty queues, and a dozen database instances.
I see all sorts of applications, from vast Kubernetes deployments to one-off serverless functions, sometimes both in the same system. It's not one type of system taking away from others, overall everything seems to be growing - tech is still growing and will for decades. Each type of deployment has it's niche where it works better than others for various reasons, including cost, speed of development, ease of maintenance, etc. I focus on what makes each particular application more efficient in whatever technology is used - for example in serverless I link to the news item below giving details of how to get "High performance Serverless Java". Ultimately, use the tech that works best for your case and be prepared to look at all the alternatives, because we have more and more options available!
Now on to all the usual newsletter list of links, tips, tools, news and articles, and as usual I've extracted all the tips into this month's tips page
