Cloud Made Simple with Serverless Python

Abstract

This talk will explore Serverless applications for python programmers. Serverless promises a number of benefits to developers, and this talk will cover some of those benefits as well as give the audience enough information to get started running Serverless python right away.

Talk Description

Attendees should walk away with a solid foundation as well as some initial steps they can take to get started with their own Serverless explorations.
