The pay-go cloud model makes total sense for orgs of all sizes. Even the term "serverless database" is a mind bender for me, but if it can scale that quickly, and reliably, and fluidly (it's a word now), it sounds exciting.
- jchrisa 10y agoThe reason the term is trending is because people are excited about not having to worry about servers any more.
- Mo3 10y agoWhat are you talking about? The database agent still runs on servers. All this does is take care of the maintenance and scaling and run multi-DC clusters, if I'm not mistaken? Just because you don't "see" the servers in the big picture anymore you can't just flat out call it serverless. Call it autoscaling or fluid or something..
- jchrisa 10y agoWe call it serverless because it fits the serverless model like a glove. You wouldn't fault Amazon for calling Lambda serverless...
