What does "FaaS" stand for in cloud computing?
"FaaS" stands for Function as a Service. It is a cloud computing service model that allows developers to execute code in response to events without managing the infrastructure. FaaS abstracts server management, enabling developers to focus solely on writing and deploying functions triggered by specific events, such as HTTP requests or file uploads. This model promotes cost efficiency, as users only pay for the execution time and resources used during function execution, making it ideal for scalable applications and microservices.
