In today's digital era, serverless computing is gradually becoming a new development direction of cloud computing. Its flexibility, efficiency, and cost optimization are loved by developers. At the same time, security issues have gradually become more prominent, and new security issues such as resource management, data isolation, and access control in serverless computing environments need to be solved urgently.
The "Serverless Computing Security Guide" aims to provide systematic security policies, frameworks and best practices for serverless computing, and guide enterprises and developers to deploy and operate more securely and efficiently services to effectively prevent potential security risks.
ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector) is a branch of the International Telecommunication Union that specializes in formulating telecommunications standards. It has evolved from an organization that originally formulated international telegraph exchange standards to today's converged ICT environment, providing the world's best facilities for the global standardization industry, and still stands as the world's only truly global ICT standards body to date. These international standards are the defining elements of the global information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure.
International ICT standards can avoid costly market battles over preferred technologies. For companies in emerging markets, standards can level the playing field when entering new markets. Standards are a fundamental help for developing countries to build their infrastructure and encourage economic development. After economies of scale are generated, all parties can benefit from the reduced costs brought about by standards: manufacturers, operators and consumers. ITU-T member units are mainly countries, and the standard setting of emerging technologies is often led by developed countries such as Europe and the United States. The purpose of participating delegations from other countries is mostly to learn and absorb.
This time, Alibaba Cloud took the lead in establishing the world’s first security standard around serverless computing. Based on Alibaba Cloud Function Compute FC, it reflects It demonstrates the technological advancement of Alibaba Cloud Function Compute FC-related cloud products in the fields of security and compliance during the innovation and evolution of serverless computing technology, as well as the business principles that regard customer security as the primary goal. During the process of establishing the standard project, despite the challenges of regulatory compliance differences, cultural differences, and new understanding of new technologies in various countries, Alibaba Cloud experts actively communicated with representatives from various countries and conducted many in-depth discussions and convincing on-site responses. In the end, he won unanimous recognition from experts from various countries with his outstanding technical hard power and deep understanding of serverless computing business scenarios.
As the first domestic company to launch serverless computing services, Alibaba Cloud has always been at the forefront of technology in this field.The core product Function Computing has been selected as a Forrester FaaS global leader > . In addition, Alibaba Cloud has also formulated an overall strategy to fully serverless its core products, providing the market with comprehensive and stable serverless product services.
In the future, Alibaba Cloud will continue to delve into the field of serverless computing, work with many enterprises and developers around the world to build a safe and healthy technology ecosystem, and jointly promote the development of serverless computing.
