Serverless computing has been establishing itself as a compelling paradigm for the development of modern cloud-native applications. Serverless represents the next step in the evolution of cloud programming models, services, and platforms, which is especially appealing due to its low management overhead, easy deployment, scale-to-zero, and promise of optimized costs. In this talk, we take a closer look at the state of serverless computing, particularly focusing on the opportunities and challenges related to building Serverless applications and next-generation edge-cloud-IoT systems in the edge-cloud continuum.
