Serverless Architecture

We all know the IT world is changing constantly. Current changes include evolving hardware, the arrival of IoT in everyday objects, and the services offered by cloud providers. The world of software development is no exception to this trend. Apart from new web frameworks, which are released faster than developers can learn them, application architectures are also beingredesigned and overhauled. Even relatively recently, the consensus was that a good, old, monolithic system was the simple, efficient, economical solution.


Following the advent of containerization and DevOps, a new range of architectures has taken shape. We have seen the emergence of microservice architectures - simple, scalable and quick to develop using application generators such as JHipster (www.jhipster.tech), which have opened new avenues in web application development. But, like any architecture, they have their downsides, including but not limited to infrastructure management. Even if DevOps, containerization, and orchestration systems such as Kubernetes have helped a great deal with this issue, they have not entirely solved it, and only a few companies with a certain level of maturity in these areas and this culture have been able to exploit the full potential of this type of architecture.Today, new services are making waves in the IT world, especially when it comes to cloud service providers, commonly described as serverless.

Automation of SCRA benefits for Top 10 bank saving an estimated $600k OPEX

The process for Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) required agents to manually verify Service Members are eligible to statutory benefits and then send out letters informing them if they were eligible or not. That process created an inefficient experience for Service Members and customer service agents. Service Members would receive little communication about the status of their application until after they had been applied or denied. The new solution automated the heaviest work process for agents, reducing the time spent by agents working on cases and accelerating the time that clients receive notifications and credits by 50%.
