I think you've missed the article's point: > I don't like Front End Dev. because it's not as mature as Back End No, he says don't do FE and BE when the tools for back end-only (well, Rails is full stack, actually) are so useful and productive. And in the rest of your comment you seem to forget that a front end is completely useless without a back end. > you are ROR or Django or ASP.NET dev and you love what you do ? As long as you find jobs keep doing this , don't bother with Full Stack Fluff. Rails is the "Full Stack Fluff". > SPA and SSR will likely be the standard in the future How, exactly? What serves your SPA? And who is using "serverless" for anything other than querying other backends (eg Slack bots) or accessing AWS services? I mean, sure, it's nice to not have to stand up a server to resize images coming from S3 but it's hardly going to replace, well, servers. You couldn't implement even the simplest CRUD app.

Uh, you can definitely implement a standard CRUD app with one of the serverless platforms. You can even throw an entire expressjs application into a lambda function with minimal modification if you want.

  > You can even throw an entire expressjs application into a lambda function This is the first general misconception with serverless. Serverless is not lambda . If you think serverless == lambda, it's like saying cloud == ec2 . You're missing the point of it.

    than please define serverless for us. using lambda and its equivalent is - in my understanding - the definition of serverless. You might not be able to utilize the biggest advantages of serverless infrastructure if you combine it with a standard ACID database backend, but it should still be a serverless deployment.

Serveverless is not lambda. If you think so , you are mistaken , it's like saying Cloud == EC2 .
