Web 3.0 is truly serverless because your application lives on a decentralized p2p cloud.
Ethereum/Swarm(or IPFS)/Whisper is an example of a serverless p2p stack.
You may as well call the service they're selling "managed", because that's what it is.
- melvinram 9y agoThat's not how the term serverless is being used most places. See first comment I made. It's not being without server. It's about not thinking about the server.
- TuringTest 9y agoThat doesn't make the name any less stupid. It's exactly like calling automatic cars "gearless" because you don't need to manually change gears.
