Arkitettura serverless tibni applikazzjonijiet minn servizzi mmaniġġjati, driven bl-avvenimenti (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, SQS, eċċ.) mingħajr ma timmaniġġa servers — AWS jimmanipola l-iskaling u l-infrastruttura. Tifhem kif tiddiżinja sistemi serverless u l-kompromessi tagħhom hija prezioza għall-arkitettura tal-cloud moderna.
Arkitettura serverless tipika
A serverless web app/API often combines:
API GATEWAY → receives HTTP requests, routes to Lambda (the API entry point)
LAMBDA → functions handle the business logic (run on demand, auto-scale)
DYNAMODB → serverless NoSQL database (scales automatically)
S3 → static assets / file storage (host the frontend, store uploads)
COGNITO → managed authentication
SQS/SNS/EventBridge → async messaging and event-driven flows
CLOUDFRONT → CDN for the frontend
→ No servers to manage; everything scales automatically; pay per use.
