I'm learning cloud computing and often hear about serverless architecture.
Can someone explain what serverless computing is, its advantages, disadvantages, and common use cases?

Serverless computing is a cloud computing model where the cloud provider manages the servers, infrastructure, and scaling automatically, allowing developers to focus only on writing and deploying code.
Key points:
No need to manage or maintain servers.
Resources scale automatically based on demand.
You pay only for the time your code runs.
Commonly used for event-driven applications and APIs.
Example: Services like AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, and Azure Functions let you run code without managing servers.
