Going Serverless

Explore the intersection of Go programming and serverless architecture in this conference talk from GopherCon 2018. Delve into how serverless paradigms aim to abstract away traditional server-side concerns, shifting focus back to core programming elements like data structures and algorithms. Examine the benefits of event-driven architectures and the challenges of using Go in serverless environments. Gain insights on leveraging idiomatic Go within the constraints of serverless execution environments, addressing concerns around process lifecycle, debuggability, and performance characteristics. Learn how serverless platforms introduce typed events to trigger on-demand programming logic, and understand the restrictions they impose on execution time and capabilities.
