Jay Smith helps Google Cloud users modernize their applications with serverless eventing. This helps them focus on their code instead of managing infrastructure, as well as ultra-fast deployments and reduced server costs. On today’s show, he discusses the definition of serverless, serverless eventing, data-driven vs. event-driven architecture, sources and sinks, and hybrid cloud with on-prem components. Finally, Jay shares how he sees application architecture changing in the future and where Apache Kafka® fits in.
