What’s a good definition of serverless in your opinion?
- manigandham 8y agoServerless doesn't have a good definition because it's not a real concept. At most lambda/workers/functions are really just PaaS, except instead of uploading all of your code, it's just a single file with a single endpoint. If we really need a new term, then micro-paas or FaaS works fine, although most FaaS vendors are expanding to running any arbitrary container with multiple endpoints, so we're right back to normal (but modern) PaaS at the end.
- nshap 8y agoMy definition: A serverless application is an application which is comprised of managed code and resources. No infrastructure needs to be managed. Some people like to include pay per use in the definition. p.s. I'm a founder of a company in the serverless space - Epsagon.
