The end-point user of any technology cares little for the underlying mechanisms of the tools they use. They only care about the experience. With always-on digital business services an expectation in 2020, some businesses are struggling to meet the demands of their customers.

This places a difficult challenge on the doorstep of your IT department. Deliver faster, deliver more flexibility and don’t spend too much money!

Cost reduction Especially in DevOps infrastructure and capability

Scalability Flexibility built into your apps without touching a server

Better customer outcomes By increasing the proximity to the end user, minimising latency

More agility The ability to make rapid updates and deployments

Whilst serverless architecture may not be for everyone, here at Waracle we have seen the tangible business benefits first-hand.

By reducing operating costs, increasing the opportunities to innovate and reducing the go-to-market time, businesses can create minimum viable products (MVP) and services, trial them, capture feedback, pivot and scale up, in a way that delivers for the organisation and customers alike.

Waracle believe in Serverless technology and can support you with the business case for investment or adoption.

Delivering scalability, agility and cost efficiency could be seen as an almost impossible challenge, but by leveraging serverless cloud execution models, it is possible. What is Serverless?

Serverless enables computational processing without developers touching an actual server (physically or virtually). Your chosen cloud provider dynamically manages the allocation of machine resources on your behalf, leaving your developers to do what they do best.

This removes the inherent risk in having to estimate requirements and having to choose between:

Over-provisioning Guaranteeing customer outcomes but running high on cost

Under-provisioning Providing cost benefit, but potentially jeopardising customer outcomes

By partnering with a cloud provider who maintains, manages and is responsible for scaling of your technical infrastructure, businesses can quickly realise a number of benefits:

Only Pay For What You Use

One of the biggest advantages of serverless technology is the fact you’re only billed for what you use, which enables you to reduce costs. Similar to a phone plan, you’ll only ever pay for the serverless resources you actually consume. Your developers can scale code as and when required and the code only ever runs when backend functions are required by your serverless app.

Accelerated Innovation

It isn’t always possible to KNOW what your customers need. It takes time to tease out insights from your team, the wider business and the customer themselves… but once you have a hypothesis, the path to a MVP and the continual improvement and scaling of that solution should be as pain-free and as frictionless as possible. Serverless architecture delivers the infrastructure that success is built upon.

Painless Provisioning

With Serverless, provisioning can automatically occur in the background in real-time. This provides a more dynamic approach to development and offers increased precision. In some instances, billing is calculated in one hundred mili-second increments. Where as in a traditional cloud-based architecture, your development team has to forecast estimated resource consumption in advance, often making a purchase based on numbers that are very difficult to predict.

Developer Empowerment

Ultimately technology should free up people to employ their creative problem solving skills and not hinder or inhibit your most important asset. Your People.

Serverless removes complexity for large scale development teams. So, gone are the days when your developers wasted sleepless nights worrying about managing complex backend systems, provisioning and purchasing.

Here at Waracle, we can help establish your business needs and identify innovative solutions that scale. We have subject matter expertise that can support you, whether you are in the ‘discovery phase’, at the point of writing a business case or ready to start implementing solutions.
