Inside, you will find everything you need to know about serverless development and how to be a serverless organization: patterns, best practices, case studies and everything in-between.\n\nAside from implementation, this guide is a collection and discussion of concerns around the state and maturity of serverless. A lot is being written about serverless technology all over the web, and right now that information is fragmented. As a community, we’re bringing it together.\n\nThe goal is to create a one-of-a-kind, trusted resource for developers, architects and thought leaders. This should be a valuable resource that will help drive adoption and innovation of serverless architectures.\n\nAre you with us? We want [you to be part](./README.md#how-to-contribute) of this journey.\n\n## Table of Contents\n\n* [Introduction](./source/README.md)\n    * [The Evolution](./source/README.md#the-evolution)\n    * [What Is Serverless?](./source/README.md#what-is-serverless)\n    * Serverless In The Cloud Computing Paradigm\n    * Serverless vs. PaaS\n\n* [Architecture](./source/architecture/README.md)\n    * A Look Back\n        * [The Monolithic Architecture](./source/architecture/README.md#the-monolithic-architecture)\n        * [The Service Oriented Architecture](./source/architecture/README.md#the-service-oriented-architecture-soa)\n        * [The Microservices Architecture](./source/architecture/README.md#the-microservices-architecture)\n    * [The Serverless Architecture](./source/architecture/README.md#the-serverless-architecture)\n        * Patterns for Partitioning Code\n\n* [Adoption](./source/adoption/README.md)\n\n* [Development](./source/dev/README.md)\n    * Culture\n    * Pathway to Serverless Development\n    * Project Structure\n    * Deployment\n    * [Testing](./source/dev/testing.md)\n         * [Unit Testing](./source/dev/testing.md#unit-testing)\n         * [Integration Testing](./source/dev/testing.md#integration-testing)\n    * Debugging\n    * [Examples](./source/dev/examples.md)\n\n* Toolsets\n    * Frameworks\n        * Apex\n        * Chalice\n        * Serverless Application Model (SAM)\n        * Serverless Framework\n\n* [Operations](./source/ops/README.md)\n\n* [Security](./source/security/README.md)\n    * [General](./source/security/README.md#security)\n        * [What are the new concerns and challenges?](./source/security/README.md#what-are-the-new-concerns-and-challenges)\n        * [Are existing security best practices relevant?](./source/security/README.md#are-existing-security-best-practices-relevant)\n    * [Pros Of Serverless](./source/security/README.md#pros-of-serverless)\n    * [A Dynamic Attack Surface Area](./source/security/README.md#a-dynamic-attack-surface-area)\n    * [Data At Rest And Data In Transit](./source/security/README.md#data-at-rest-and-data-in-transit)\n    * [Application Vulnerabilities](./source/security/README.md#application-vulnerabilities)\n    * [Access Management](./source/security/README.md#access-management)\n    * [Access Segmentation](./source/security/README.md#access-segmentation)\n    * [Best Practices](./source/security/README.md#best-practices)\n\n* [Providers](./source/providers/README.md)\n    * [Commercial Hosted Platforms](./source/providers/README.md#commercial-hosted-platforms)\n        * [A Comparative Look](./source/providers/README.md#a-comparative-look)\n        * [AWS Lambda](./source/providers/aws.md)\n        * [Azure Functions](./source/providers/azure.md)\n        * [Google Cloud Functions](./source/providers/gcf.md)\n        * [IBM Cloud Functions](./source/providers/ibm-cloud.md)\n    * [Opensource Platforms](./source/providers/README.md#opensource-platforms)\n        * [A Comparative View](./source/providers/README.md#a-comparative-view)\n        * [Kubeless](./source/providers/kubeless.md)\n        * Apache OpenWhisk\n        * OpenFaaS\n\n* [Case Studies](./source/case_studies/README.md)\n\n* [Glossary](./source/glossary.md)\n\n## eBook\n\nRead the ebook version instead?
