So my car is engineless if I never look under the hood?

So my car is engineless if I never look under the hood?
- rileyphone 10y agoI think this architecture is public transportation in that analogy.
- themihai 10y agoMaybe worry free if you don't need to look under the hood. If the manufacturer would lock the hood you would never know :)
- dingaling 10y agoThey actually did lock the hood with the Audi A1. Just had a flap through which you could top-up water and oil. Perhaps we could adopt 'A1' instead of the confusing term 'serverless'...
- bobbyi_settv 10y agoYour car isn't engineless because when its engine dies, you will know about it and have to do something. S3 is serverless because if one of the servers storing my files die, I have no way of even knowing it happened.
- Sanddancer 10y agoS3's had downtime, and had data loss incidents. S3's only serverless if you believe Amazon's infallible.
- dboreham 10y agoI didn't invent the terminology. Like many many things in this business the terms used are often confusing/wrong/overloaded/re-invented-from-the-1980's and so on. Part of the landscape unfortunately.
