For me, the key takeaway was that you need to carefully examine the architecture of your application(s) in order to understand where serverless (function-as-a-service) is the best fit. Here’s a walkthrough to install Arch Linux on VirtualBox. Alan Renouf shows you how to retrieve NVMe storage device details using PowerCLI.
