AWS and Vercel: Accelerating innovation with serverless computing
Vercel and AWS outline their joint serverless computing approach at re:Invent, highlighting how Vercel uses Lambda as an edge-first compute layer with globally distributed caching.
Last week, I joined Holly Mesrobian, AWS VP of Serverless Compute, on stage at AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas. We discussed our shared vision of accelerating innovation with serverless computing, and how Vercel has leveraged AWS Lambda over the years. I’m passionate about , and what it means for our customers—and their customers. We pride ourselves on creating the ultimate experience for developers and their users alike. digital transformation As you would expect from a developer-first platform, it all starts with pushing code to the cloud, while ensuring the workflow is optimized for developer productivity.
To deliver world-class sites in production, we've turned lambda into an edge-first compute layer. We've also added globally distributed caching, which gets automatically purged from any data source, whether it's a database like DynamoDB or a composable commerce platform like Sitecore, BigCommerce, or Salesforce Commerce Cloud. With this model, our customers get optimal performance and infinite scale—at a fraction of the cost and overhead of manually provisioning servers or configuring a litany of cloud services. Because of these powerful DX and UX elements, Holly and I agree…
