Hey there! Ever wondered how to simplify your data management in serverless applications? Let's dive into Upstash and discover how it's transforming the serverless data landscape! 🚀

The Evolution of Data Management in Serverless Architectures

In traditional serverless setups, developers often grappled with managing persistent connections to databases. These long-lived connections could lead to issues, especially when not properly managed, causing resource exhaustion and performance bottlenecks. Moreover, certain environments posed challenges where TCP connections weren't feasible, adding complexity to the development process.
