Overview
Serverless architectures are driving a revolution in DevOps and the way applications and other web technologies are deployed to the cloud. Serverless offers a streamlined and accelerated path to deployment that can cut down on the time and resources needed to optimize the performance of your app or service. It’s really great, and it’s clearly the future. Unless you’re a developer. The developer experience working with serverless technologies is, how shall we say this, not good. It’s currently slow, cumbersome, and often difficult to work with online IDE.
This panel will weigh the benefits of serverless architectures against the cost to developer experience and explore ways the technology can be improved to deliver a great experience along every step of app development and deployment.
