17+ ## How can code be executed "without" servers?
1618Servers still exist to execute the code but they are abstracted away from
1719the developer and handled by a compute platform such as
1820[ Amazon Web Services Lambda] ( /aws-lambda.html ) or
1921[ Google Cloud Functions] ( /google-cloud-functions.html ) .
