Serverless Java

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Clear comparison of concrete Java serverless options with working demos and tradeoffs: builds a one-class "hello Duke" function with Maven Shade and deploys it to AWS Lambda, IBM Cloud/OpenWhisk, Azure Functions and Fn Project on Oracle Cloud. Shows jar sizes and upload flow, run results, and that cold starts plague JVMs but GraalVM native images (via Quarkus) cut startup to milliseconds. Notes framework dependencies slow startup, payment-for-execution model, and practical tooling commands used for local testing and cloud deployment.
