serverless application development technology
Our goal is to support our customers' cloud strategy, to make the most of the opportunities offered by cloud platforms when implementing applications that require unique architectures. We focus in particular on serverless solutions that can greatly reduce our customers' operating burdens and provide usage-based costing.

serverless software development
Today, more and more large companies are recognizing the potential of the services provided by cloud platforms and are shaping their IT strategies accordingly. There are several levels of cloud conquest, in addition to rehosting and replatforming methods, the refactoring method is one in which we support our customers with our expertise. Serverless solutions require a new way of thinking that, once understood and applied, our customers can quickly realize a reduction in their costs. One of the main pillars of the operating model is to use only when and how much resources are needed and to pay only for what we have used. In our cloud of competence, we are working on the implementation of this model in our clients' projects.
In order to serve our customers effectively, we deal with the following
Design and development of serverless application reference architectures (Microsoft Azure, AWS)
Using Function as a Service tools (Azure Functions, AWS Lambda)
Serverless application development (Azure App Services, AWS Fargate)
Using API management tools (Azure API Management, Amazon API Gateway)
Using Serverless message brokers (Azure Event Hub/Grid, Amazon EventBridge)
Serverless SQL and NoSQL databases management (Azure SQL Database / Cosmos DB, Amazon Aurora Serverless / DynamoDB)
Building secure applications and virtual networks in public clouds
Estimating, defining, and optimizing the consumption-based use of serverless cloud components
What does a competence cloud member do?
We are basically engaged in cloud-native application development, including serverless solutions. Tailored to the needs of our corporate customers, we implement solutions and applications that serve business needs in Microsoft Azure or AWS public clouds. After selecting the cloud platform, we define the required components, cloud services, and architecture. Then we implement business logic in Typescript and Java languages in the form of functions or serverless applications.
Due to ever-changing needs and a wide range of cloud tools, we regularly train ourselves to learn about new technologies and tools. Furthermore, we test new services within the framework of proof of concepts, thus organizing a relevant experience in them.
Exams
We consider it important to train ourselves and also account for our knowledge. Accordingly, we have developed training plans that allow colleagues to follow different ways of development. During the training ways, they can learn about the tools provided by the cloud ecosystems used in our cloud projects.
