Ryan Lewis - SeattleJS Conference 2017
summary
An engineering report on no-side JavaScript: a Node-based pattern for event-driven, serverless apps used in production at Expedia for about 18 months. Emphasizes tiny, single-purpose functions (small apps often have 20+ functions), read-only filesystems, and distribution across managed services. Concrete limits: 50 MB zipped upload (250 MB expanded), default 1,000 concurrent invocations, and cold starts in the low- to mid-hundreds of milliseconds. Recommends using the serverless framework for local dev, deployments and resource provisioning.
