You trade known deployment problems for unknown infra management problems. You reduce the complexity of contribution significantly. If you’re at a company that wants to manage K8s, and you’ve chosen to invest in that direction, then serverless doesn’t make a lot of sense. If your customers aren’t buying compute, then you should be wary of large investments that are outside your core focus. Sure, there are quite a few problems with lambdas. But the abstraction you’re working at is much more atomic. And you don’t need FTEs to manage K8s and introduce a completely new set of problems. Less is more (is the argument).
