Serverless Framework
The Serverless Framework is an open-source CLI tool that simplifies the development and deployment of serverless applications across multiple cloud providers, such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It automates infrastructure provisioning, packaging, and deployment, allowing developers to focus on writing code rather than managing servers. It supports various programming languages and integrates with cloud services like AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions.
Developers should learn the Serverless Framework when building scalable, event-driven applications that require minimal operational overhead, such as APIs, data processing pipelines, or microservices. It is particularly useful for projects needing rapid deployment, cost efficiency through pay-per-use pricing, and seamless integration with cloud-native services, reducing the complexity of managing server infrastructure.
