Serverless functions are extremely good at what they do and provide planet-scale computing power for your applications. The one thing where serverless functions fall short is when it comes to state management. When missing state management abilities building up complex flows in your data processing will prove to be quite daunting, and most often than not will require you to provide custom mechanisms for enabling you to communicate between your functions. I am here to explain the challenges and what we can do to tackle them in a way that is extensible and suitable for production environments.

Serverless at the end of the Universe
1.
2. …a race of hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings
once built themselves a gigantic supercomputer called
Deep Thought to calculate once and for all the Answer
to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and
Everything…
3. For seven and a half million years, Deep Thought
computed and calculated, and in the end announced
that the answer was in fact Forty-two
4. …and so another, even bigger, computer had to be
built to find out what the actual question was.
5. And this computer, which was called the Earth, was
so large that it was frequently mistaken for a planet….
Sadly, however, just before the critical moment of
readout, the Earth was unexpectedly demolished by
the Vogons to make way – so they claimed – for a
new hyperspace bypass, and so all hope of discovering
a meaning for life was lost for ever.
