10. Serverless Computing

11. ● No need to think about servers
● Pay per use
● No upfront provisioning; scale as per need
● Stateless
What is Serverless Computing?

12. ● Multimedia processing
● Chat bots
● IoT sensors
● HTTP Rest API and webhooks
● Batch jobs
● Event streaming
Common Cases

13. Google Cloud Functions

14. ● Invisible infrastructure
● Only pay for what you use
● Automatic scaling
● Centralized logging and monitoring
● Secure environment for executions
Cloud Functions

15. ● Controlling scaling
● Isolated from other functions
● Functions execution
● Deployments
● Idle instances and minimizing cold start
Cloud Behaviour

16. ● Dramatically reduces the time-to-deploy due to its focus on the app code rather than the
infrastructure
● Efficient utilization of resources
● No overhead to manage the infrastructure
● Automatic scaling
● Pay-per-request model, compared to buying pre-allocated
How Are Cloud Functions Different?

17. Supported Runtime Environments

18. Types of Triggers?
Cloud Storage Cloud Pub/Sub HTTP

19. Deploy From
Command line Console UI API

20. Logging and Monitoring
Stackdriver Logging:
● Catches application logs and errors
● Accessible via multiple place
○ Gcloud command line
○ Console UI
○ Rest APIs
Stackdriver Monitoring:
● Essential telemetry
○ Invocations
○ Execution details
○ Memory usage

21. ● Network access
● Authenticating to functions
● Function identity
● Compliance offerings:
○ ISO: 27001
○ HIPAA
○ PCI DSS
