Serverless
What is Serverless?
Serverless, is an execution model where the cloud provider is responsible for executing a piece of code by dynamically allocating the resources. The code is typically run inside stateless containers that can be triggered by a variety of events including http requests, database events, queuing services, monitoring alerts, file uploads, scheduled events (cron jobs), etc. The code that is sent to the cloud provider for execution is usually in the form of a function. Hence serverless is sometimes referred to as “Functions as a Service” or “FaaS”.

Let me break it down!
Serverless
What is Serverless?
- Serverless is an execution model
- Cloud providers execute the code
- by allocating resources dynamically
- the code runs inside Stateless containers
- triggered by event( http request, cron job)
- code sent to cloud providers are in the form of functions
- hence "Function as a Service" or "Fass"
Serverless
Traditional Architecture
- we are charged for keeping the server up
even when we are not using
- responsible for uptime and maintenance of the server and all its resources.
- responsible for applying the appropriate security updates
- we need to manage scaling

Why Serverless?
Just like wireless internet has wires somewhere, serverless architectures still have servers somewhere.
What ‘serverless’ really means is that, as a developer, you don’t have to think about those servers.
You just focus on code.

JSON Web Token
JWT
What is JSON Web Tokens?
- A way to encode information
- Securely communicate JSON Objects
- Secret-based Verification
- Consists of a header, payload and signature
- Self-contained
JWT
JSON Web Token
JWT
The JWT Header
The header is a JSON Object usually consisting of the type( typ ) , which is JWT, and the algorithm used for encrypting the JWT (alg ):
{
"alg": "HS256",
"typ": "JWT"
}JWT
The JWT Payload
The Payload is a JSON object that consists of user defined attributes ( called public claims ) . Some attributes are defined in the standard ( these are called reserved claims ).
{
// reserved claim
"iss": "https://myapi.com",
// public claim
"user": "mdsbzalam"
}JWT
The JWT Signature
The Signature is the encoded header and payload, signed with a secret.
HMACSHA256(
base64UrlEncode(header) + "." +
base64UrlEncode(payload),
secret
)
This accomplishes several tasks at once, including:
- Proves the identity of the sender
- Ensures the message has not changed
JWT
The JWT Token
A finished token looks like [encoded header].[encoded payload].[signature] :
JWT
The JWT Token
How an application uses JWT to verify the authenticity of a user.
