In the words of the UFC's icon Bruce Buffer, with a 180 degree spinning announcement - "we...are...live..." and finally after a long beta period, we're ready to launch to the public as a whole. The beta period has been an excellent experience for us, and of course, a great learning curve.

When a visitor types your website into the search bar, they intend to see your website and not a broken link/webpage.

Serverless computing is a cloud-based application architecture where the application’s infrastructure and support services layer is completely abstracted from the software layer. Any computer program needs hardware to run on, so serverless applications are not really “serverless” - they do run on servers - it’s just that the servers are not exposed as physical or virtual machines to the developer running the code.
