Compare the Top Free Serverless Platforms as of December 2025

What are Free Serverless Platforms?

Serverless platforms are cloud computing services that allow developers to build and deploy applications without managing the underlying infrastructure, such as servers or virtual machines. These platforms automatically handle the scaling, provisioning, and maintenance of resources, allowing developers to focus on writing code and implementing business logic. Serverless platforms typically provide a pay-as-you-go pricing model, where users only pay for the actual resources used during execution rather than for idle time. Features of serverless platforms include automatic scaling, event-driven architecture, and support for various programming languages and services. Popular serverless platforms are commonly used for web applications, microservices, APIs, and data processing. Compare and read user reviews of the best Free Serverless platforms currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.
