What is a Serverless Function designed to do?

A Serverless Function is specifically designed to execute code without the need for server management. This means that developers can write and deploy code without having to worry about the underlying server infrastructure, operating systems, or scalability concerns. The provider of the serverless platform takes care of provisioning and managing the resources, allowing developers to focus on writing the logic and functionality of their applications.

In a serverless architecture, functions are invoked in response to events, and users are only billed for the execution time of the functions, making it a cost-effective and efficient option for many applications. Additionally, serverless functions scale automatically based on demand, which enhances their usability for fluctuating workloads. This model promotes agile development and quicker time to market as developers can iterate their applications without the overhead of traditional server management.
