Don't try these at home

13,734 views

Published on

In this talk, I discussed the value of experimenting in the cloud and doing so in a tasteful manner (i.e. don't put your experiments into production!). I shared a number of interesting experiments that the serverless community has done, and some ideas and learning that we can take from them.
