The scalability of the application depends on three factors: the number of users, the location of the users, and the latency of the network. In today's world, applications have a global audience, which can add to latency. But the danger of latency can be highly mitigated with the serverless platform. With serverless, a container is instantiated to run a function at every event call, and this container can be created close to the user's geographical region, which will automatically improve the performance of the app.
