Abstract
—Serverless applications are those that do not require
the developer to provide or manage any servers. The developer
can focus on core product logic and development and just release
their code into a container at the service provider. However, when
initializing a container there may be a latency called cold start.
This article aims to use the Node.js language as an alternative
to the Java language as a prevention against the cold start
scenario in applications that have a low frequency of use. With
the development of lambda functions with the same functionality
in both languages. Noting that the node.js language had an 82%
reduction in startup time compared to java.
