Guided Notes

Serverless & Containers

Serverless computing with AWS Lambda, and running containers with Amazon ECS, EKS, and AWS Fargate.

What does serverless mean?

Slide 1 / 5

Serverless doesn't mean there are no servers β€” it means you don't see or manage them. AWS provisions, patches, and scales the underlying machines; you provide only your code.

You pay only when the code runs, and it scales automatically from zero to thousands of requests.

With EC2 you manage instances; with serverless services you focus entirely on application logic.
