- aikah 8y ago> Just remember the modern definition of serverless: Just because it runs on someone else's machine doesn't mean it is "serverless". an API Gateway obviously is a server. FAAS is just a good old worker queue, there is nothing new about that. There is no "modern definition" of serveless. it's just marketing, it has nothing to do with technology. Developers shouldn't use that word and expect to be taken seriously.
- olalonde 8y agoThat's a good definition for P2P, not for "serverless". Serverless functions run on a server. It typically refers to a category of PaaS which allows on-demand code execution (as opposed to "always on" services).
- icebraining 8y agoI believe the idea is rejecting that definition.
