From the perspective of resource management, cloud computing falls into three categories, namely, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). Each model can be clarified in the responsibility share of infrastructure and implementation management on the user and provider. Nowadays, as an addition to these models, the notion of Function as a Service (FaaS) has appeared, based on serverless architecture, implying serverless services. With this model, in brief, a developed code is run scalable depending on a request or an event. The user is responsible only for the development and uploading of the code. This increasingly widespread model has been applied not only to run the code but also to services such as data storage and data analysis. Thus, the scope of the model has been expanded. This study deals with various Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) from the viewpoint of their use on cloud computing with serverless architectures. In this context, various GIS applications were selected to deploy a public cloud computing provider’s services, and results were discussed. In this way, it is aimed to raise awareness by examining the use of services and software based on increasingly popular serverless architectures with different GIS applications. In addition, the interaction of trending technologies and computing paradigms in the cloud computing area such as GIS technologies, spatial intelligence, and big data, with serverless architectures are reviewed; and a contributory road map for the future is proposed.
