+Serverless computing is quickly becoming a defacto way to build highly scalable fault tolerant systems. With the pay-per-execution pricing model, zero administration, and automatic scaling it's easy to see why.
-The Serverless Framework is the application framework for building web, mobile and IoT applications on serverless, event-driven compute services.
+This new level of operational abstraction has it's benefits but also introduces some additional complexities, thus the serverless framework was born.
-We currently support [AWS Lambda](https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/) and are adding support for [Google CloudFunctions](https://cloud.google.com/functions/), [Azure Functions](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/functions/) and more.
+The Serverless Framework is a command line interface for building web, mobile and IoT applications on serverless, event-driven compute services.
-The Serverless command line interface provides scaffolding, automation and best practices for developing and deploying your serverless architecture.
+The CLI provides scaffolding, automation and best practices for developing and deploying your serverless architecture.
-Designed from the ground up to be extendable via plugins, It's easy to extend functionality to fit your unique needs.

# About the project
-While AWS Lambda offers a powerful new way of developing/running applications, when we began building our first project based entirely on AWS Lambda, we realized structure was badly needed.
-
-Managing all of the containers that Lambda introduces is a difficult task. Add to that multi-developer teams, multi-stage and multi-region support and you will quickly get into a messy situation.
-
-Thus, the Serverless Framework was born. The first and most powerful framework for building applications exclusively on AWS Lambda.
-
Serverless is an MIT open source project and is actively maintained by a full-time, venture-backed team.
