Cloud-native applications involve Server-less architecture as a key element which is a cost-effective method of enabling micro-services. It is a way to deploy applications while leaving all infrastructure details to the cloud provider.

These event-driven, function-centric systems are becoming an ever-more essential capability for playing in today’s digital ecosystems. Server-less architectures enable developers to focus solely on revenue-generating functions, and not waste time on non-value-added infrastructure issues.

Unlike legacy systems, cloud native computing is based on containerization and virtualization of software. So, companies do not have to spend on additional servers, hardware, and other resources. They can deploy the application on any server. Additionally, companies only have to pay for the resources they use . They do not have to pay for all the servers that lie idle. This helps the company to streamline their costs and optimize their usage.
