Throughout this series we have been exploring how to use serverless architectures to our advantage. In this article I will show you: How to create a serverless slack command using Node.js & Up, Best Practices when developing serverless applications, A curated list of serverless resources.
In Part 2: Serverless Scales I briefly touched on how a serverless architecture can have a cost benefit. In this post, I will go over: How to approach and analyze the cost of serverless, Two detailed examples of a cost analysis.
In Part 1: What is Serverless? I talked about how one of the biggest pros to a serverless architecture is how well it scales and how high availability is baked in. In this post I’ll go over: How a traditional highly available scalable architecture works, How a scalable serverless architecture works, How you can benefit from a serverless architecture.
In this post we’ll answer the following questions: What is serverless architecture? (and what it’s not), What are the pros & cons of serverless?
In this post, I will walk you through creating a simple Prometheus monitoring stack, connecting it to Grafana for pretty dashboards, and finally configuring alerts via PagerTree.
The holiday season has just begun, and many of you are going to be taking time off to be with friends and family. Unfortunately, someone from your team has to be on-call during major dates such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. Thankfully, with PagerTree, you can easily manage your holiday on-call schedule so you can spend less time worrying about on-call and more time with loved ones.
Today we are enhancing PagerTree with the addition of delivery notifications! These notifications give you increased visibility into the notification delivery process. With today’s release you can now track when a notification is created, sent, and delivered.
We are excited to announce the official release of the PagerTree App for iPhone and Android! Our new mobile app truly makes it easy for you and your team to respond incidents quickly. The app is really great for those places you don’t have cellular service but still have Wi-Fi. By getting push notifications you don’t have to worry about dropped calls or delayed SMS messages because you don’t have signal.
