I disagree, microservices are an architectural concept related to the software, not to the infrastructure. Whether you are using containers or VPS or serverless or bare metal for your infrastructure, that's completely unrelated to the concept of microservices: you can deploy either a monolith or microservices in any of the above. As an example you can deploy a monolith on Lambda[1] or you can deploy microservices on bare metal using one of the several self managed serverless engines available[2].
