Kalita, Dhrubajyoti (2025) Embracing serverless microservices: A decoupled, scalable, and event-driven evolution in cloud architecture. World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews, 27 (1). pp. 902-915. ISSN 2581-9615

Serverless computing and microservices architecture have revolutionized cloud computing by introducing a paradigm shift in application development and deployment. This transformation enables organizations to build scalable, cost-effective solutions while focusing on business logic rather than infrastructure management. The integration of event-driven patterns with serverless microservices has enhanced system resilience, scalability, and operational efficiency. Organizations across various industries have adopted these technologies to achieve improved performance, reduced costs, and enhanced development agility. The implementation of best practices and solutions to common challenges has further accelerated the adoption of serverless architectures in enterprise environments. The decoupled nature of serverless microservices facilitates independent scaling and deployment, enabling rapid innovation and market responsiveness. Through automated infrastructure management and pay-per-execution models, organizations can optimize resource utilization while maintaining high availability and fault tolerance. The combination of these technologies with modern monitoring and observability practices ensures reliable, maintainable systems that can evolve with changing business requirements.
