Advantages of serverless applications:

• Cost savings: Serverless applications are typically billed on a pay-per-use basis, so users only pay for the resources they use. This can result in significant cost savings for businesses, especially for low traffic applications.

RYAX saves costs even more with cloud native architecture
and auto down/up scaling.

• Automatic scaling: Cloud platforms automatically manage the scaling of serverless applications based on resource needs. This means there is no need to manually provision resources to handle load spikes.

• Flexibility: Serverless applications can be deployed on multiple cloud platforms, allowing users to choose the platform that best suits their needs.

• Shorter deployment time: Serverless applications generally require less configuration than traditional applications, which allows for faster deployment.

Disadvantages of serverless applications:

• Execution time limitations: Some platforms have execution time limitations for serverless functions, which can cause problems for applications that require long processing times.

Note that this limitation doesn't exists with RYAX,
and you can manage serverless deployments and lifetime executions.

• High latency: Serverless applications can have higher latency due to the event-driven nature of their execution.

Note RYAX event-driven pop-up architecture is super fast,
reducing the common serverless latency.

• Memory limitations: Some platforms have memory limitations for serverless functions, which can cause problems for applications that require a large amount of memory.

Note that this limitation doesn't exists with RYAX,
and you can use RYAX for heavy processes like Machine Learning

• Hidden costs: Costs related to the use of services such as databases, storages and messages can increase considerably if the use of these services increases.

No hidden costs with RYAX !
