WeChat provides a ubiquitous mobile application platform with a reach of over 900MM MAUs & 1MM registered devs building everything from e-commerce to games to banking apps. We will describe how a customer with 1 engineer built and deployed a top 30 WeChat Mini-Program in 7 days using the Tencent Cloud Serverless Platform – and has now achieved over 100MM registered customers, with 12MM MAUs. We’ll walk through the technical details(container orchestration, function cold start, and application performance & monitoring) of how the platform enables customers to build reliable, performant, and safe apps without having to manage infrastructure or operations – all while scaling apps to 100MM users without managing servers, infrastructure, or operations.
