**Watch the full presentation here: https://codefresh.io/automated-serverless-pipelines-with-gitops-on-codefresh/ Dan Van Brunt introduces you to Serverless, talks about common misconceptions and challenges, and then demos how he uses the Serverless Framework effectively alongside containers. He shares some of the advanced pipelines he's developed so you can replicate his workflow without building a pipeline from scratch!

8. What is “Serverless”
Methodology

9. Serverless architectures are application designs that
incorporate third-party “Backend as a Service” (BaaS) services,
and/or that include custom code run in managed, ephemeral
containers on a “Functions as a Service” (FaaS) platform.
Serverless architectures may benefit from significantly reduced
operational cost, complexity, and engineering lead time, at a
cost of increased reliance on vendor dependencies and
comparatively immature supporting services.

Traits from
AWS Lambda
● Microservices
● Zero Administration
○ Auto-scaling
○ No Monitoring
○ No OS / Security Updates
● Pay per Execute
● Event Driven
● Interoperable with other
managed services

13. Simple Serverless Application

14. OK, that all sounds great.
So then what’s MISSING?

23. Each environment needs a
PREDICTABLE URL
branch--service.klickstuff.com

24. Many of those environments
can be COMPLEX...
