A Serverless app can simply be a couple of lambda functions to accomplish some tasks, or an entire back-end composed of hundreds of lambda functions. Serverless supports all runtimes offered within the cloud provider chosen. Serverless is developed by Austen Collins[3] and maintained by a full-time team.[4]

It was first introduced in October 2015 under the name JAWS.[5]
