SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome back to the show. Before we dive into the latest serverless trends, let’s talk a little bit about your background and focus at Datadog.
Topic 1a - This is the 2nd year of the State of Serverless report. Tell us about the scope and the methodology used.
Topic 2 - Let’s begin by talking about the growth (by breadth) of the overall Serverless market. Who is using serverless, and where are they consuming it from?
Topic 3 - Your data shows that AWS Lambda is evolving in a couple different ways - both shorter lived usage (average) and involved in a broader set of use-cases (via Step Functions). It sounds like Serverless is becoming more mainstream as it branches out.
Topic 4 - Language popularity is always an area of interest - what are the most popular languages for building serverless apps?
Topic 5 - Given how granular Lambda billing has become, and how frameworks like Serverless and Step Functions are being used, were you surprised at the low rate of automation around serverless functions?
Topic 6 - This year it seems like Edge use-cases for Serverless have really grown. I’d expect this to continue as we’re seeing both CloudFlare and AWS recently expanding their Serverless edge capabilities within their CDN offerings.
