Serverless State of the Union
summary
A concise history and roadmap: the open-source Serverless Framework (2015) proves apps can be defined as functions + events and deployed with a single command, leveraging auto-scaling and pay-per-execution billing charged in 100 millisecond increments. The ecosystem now includes open FaaS projects (OpenWhisk, Kubeless, Fn, OpenFaaS), container integrations (Fargate, per-second billing), and a CNCF working group driving CloudEvents to standardize event formats. New beta: Serverless Components, vendor-agnostic building blocks for composing app features.
