Serverless computing is now trending in the world of software architecture.

Google, Amazon and Microsoft, the world’s leading cloud providers, have all invested a large chunk of their resources in developing state of the art Serverless computing technology.

But what is serverless computing?

What is the makeup of serverless computing, and what has lead to its rapid uptake and adoption among enterprises across the world? This blog will explore these issues and more!

A fault tolerant setup typically consists of a system that has the ability to continue seamless operation even under circumstances where one or more of its components suffer from failure.

As life-changing advancements in technology create drastic changes across enterprise environments, new technology has brought about new and innovative ways of getting work done, anywhere, and at anytime!

Initially, the advent of mobile phones and tablets provided users with great versatility and mobility in accomplishing their work-related tasks.

However, with significant recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and other information capturing and analysis technologies, today, the modern workplace is equipped with tools to drive productivity to levels that have never been achieved prior!

The future of enterprise computing lies in the cloud!  Cloud computing offers enhanced flexibility and scalability, with the ability to adapt and expand as dictated by enterprise requirements, while allowing organizations to reduce the IT infrastructure that they deploy, leading to reduced IT support costs.

With cloud computing also streamlining file and document access from anywhere, it has enabled greater collaboration amongst employees within an organization and across various departments, leading to increased productivity.

However, with all of the positives that cloud computing brings along, printing from the cloud has been a lingering issue for many enterprises!
