Where you decide to host your cloud databases is a huge decision. But, if you’re considering leveraging a managed databases provider, you have another decision to make – are you able to host in your own cloud account or are you required to host through your managed service provider?

A common question that I get is why do we offer so many database products? To do this, they need to be able to use multiple databases and data models within the same application. Seldom can one database fit the needs of multiple distinct use cases. Seldom can one database fit the needs of multiple distinct use cases.

REST APIs, authentication, databases, email, and video processing all have a home on serverless platforms. AWS Lambda functions are an example of how a serverless framework works: Developers write a function in a supported language or platform. When an application is triggered, it can cause latency as the application starts.
