At lunchtime, a promotion sends thousands of people to it at once. Every uploaded image needs a thumbnail, but keeping a fleet of thumbnail servers running all day would waste money. Guessing the lunchtime peak would be fragile.</p> <p>This is the tension serverless computing is designed to relieve.</p> <p>Instead of choosing a server size and deciding how many copies should stay online, the team deploys code or a container and connects it to an event. An upload arrives, the platform starts enough execution capacity to process it, and that capacity can shrink when the work disappears.</p>
