138: Everything Serverless with Andy Raines
from Three Devs and a Maybe · host Michael Budd, Fraser Hart, Lewis Cains, Edd Mann
In this weeks episode we chat to Andy Raines about all things Serverless. We start off by discussing what Serverless actually means, advantages of using such a model, design constraints it employs and how it scales. From here we touch upon the history of how we got to the compute/infrastructure we use today: from on-premise servers, IaaS, PaaS and FaaS/BaaS. This leads us on to highlight the 12-factor app methodology, how immutability has vast benefits in many contexts and how FaaS platforms work under-the-hood. Finally, we mention the Serverless PHP project Andy is working on, the motivations behind it and future development he would like to see take place.
