How the BBC Built a Serverless-First Architecture: In this episode of Serverless Craic, Dave, Mark, and Michael explore one of the most compelling real-world examples of serverless at scale: the BBC’s serverless-first transformation.
We break down how the BBC News engineering team delivers global, highly-spiky traffic, meets strict public-service constraints, reduces incidents, and accelerates delivery—all with a pragmatic serverless-first mindset.
Expect insights on production readiness, architectural constraints, continuous delivery, problem prevention at scale, and how the BBC evolved a massive digital estate by keeping things intentionally simple.
