Whatever you call it, this approach is giving developers new freedom to focus on frontend functionality and deliver better, more innovative user experiences.

Confused? Join the Kinvey engineering team in this recorded webinar as we go beyond the hype to simplify the serverless approach. Learn how organizations are adopting enterprise-grade serverless architectures to deliver apps faster across web, mobile and chat while maintaining secure integration with existing data and authentication systems.
