Serverless & Functions

Serverless isn’t just Lambda functions. It’s an architectural approach that leverages managed services to minimize operational burden and align cost with usage. We build event-driven systems that scale from zero to millions of requests without capacity planning or cluster management. When it fits, serverless is transformative. When it doesn’t, we’ll tell you.

What We Build

Event-Driven Applications

Architectures that respond to events—API requests, file uploads, database changes, schedules.

API Backends

REST and GraphQL APIs built on Lambda, Cloud Functions, or Azure Functions.

Data Processing Pipelines

ETL workflows, file processing, and data transformation triggered by events.

Workflow Orchestration

Step Functions, Cloud Workflows—coordinating complex multi-step processes.

Real-Time Processing

Stream processing with Kinesis, Pub/Sub, and serverless compute.

Scheduled Jobs

Cron-like workloads without maintaining servers—reporting, cleanup, integrations.

Serverless Platforms

AWS Lambda

Event-driven compute integrated with the full AWS ecosystem.

Google Cloud Functions

Lightweight functions with strong GCP integration, especially for data workloads.

Azure Functions

Microsoft's serverless compute with deep enterprise integration.

Edge Functions

Cloudflare Workers, Lambda@Edge—compute at the CDN layer for global low-latency.

📊

Observability

Distributed tracing, metrics, and logging for serverless-specific challenges.

💰

Cost Optimization

Memory tuning, concurrency configuration, and architecture choices that minimize cost.

📚

Documentation

Runbooks and architecture docs for your team to own the system.

When to Call Us

You want to build something new without managing servers

We'll design a serverless architecture that scales automatically and costs nothing when idle.

You have variable or unpredictable workloads

Serverless excels when demand is bursty. We'll help you handle spikes without over-provisioning.

You're building event-driven integrations

Connecting systems, processing webhooks, and responding to events is a natural serverless fit.

You want to reduce operational burden

No patching, no scaling decisions, no capacity planning. We'll help you shift that burden to managed services.

Frequently Asked Questions

What about cold starts?

+

Cold starts are real but often overstated. For most workloads, sub-second latency is fine. When it’s not, we use provisioned concurrency, keep-warm patterns, or hybrid architectures that avoid the issue.

Is serverless really cheaper?

+

For variable workloads, usually yes. For consistent high-volume traffic, traditional compute might be cheaper. We’ll model the costs for your actual usage patterns and be honest about the tradeoffs.

How do you handle state in serverless?

+

Serverless functions are stateless by design. We use DynamoDB, Redis, S3, or your database for persistence—designing data access patterns that work with ephemeral compute.

Can serverless handle complex business logic?

+

Yes, with the right architecture. Step Functions and similar orchestrators handle multi-step workflows. We design function boundaries that keep individual functions simple while supporting complex processes.
