" don’t need Kubernetes nor serverless."
Actually 'serverless' is where small shops might want to start.
A single Lambda can encompass a whole variety of functions, and if you're using a datastore that scales as well, you don't need to worry about much. Once it's set up, it should be very easy to monitor and change.
I'd rather a simple Lambda than managing a couple of EC2's with failover scenarios and the front end networking pieces for that.
- nerdbeere 8y agoAlso small scale is where lambda really shines in terms of costs. If you have some api endpoint that gets a hit 100 times per hour and does some execution then this is actually way cheaper then even the cheapest ec2 instance in a production setup with ELB.
