So it is about how the user perceives the application?! If so, why is it called "an architecture"? Or do you mean that the user don't have to care on how to configure the application? Then "Zero-configuration" is a better name. Or do you mean that the application hides that it use services on the net? Then it is even worse.

> So it is about how the user perceives the application The user here is the developer. Here's an explanation from the article: > "some amount of server-side logic is still written by the application developer but unlike traditional architectures is run in stateless compute containers that are event-triggered, ephemeral (may only last for one invocation), and fully managed by a 3rd party ... One way to think of this is Functions as a Service." FaaS is probably a better name.
