>“serverless” terms misleading? [...] I think the terms are intentionally misleading. What is your sentiment? To make peace with it, just realize that a lot of words like the ones ending in suffix "-less" are not absolutes but relative to another context. More examples of that: - "stateless" : nothing is truly stateless. E.g. a stateless function doesn't change visible input parameters or globals but the underlying cpu state is still changing. The context where the "-less" matters is the high-level language function syntax and not the cpu registers. - "weightless" but always under influence of micro-gravity so not truly weightless - "touchless" car wash and yet H2O and air molecules still touch the car. To resolve this, the "-less" refers to the cleaning brushes and not the water. The term "serverless" is never misleading to me because I understand the context of how and why it's used. It's more about server-AdminHousekeepingTasks-less instead of a denying the existence of physical servers. "Serverless" is shorthand for a bunch of extra words we leave out. I think some have tried to spread "FaaS" Function-as-a-Service as alternative to "serverless" but not sure how widely adopted it is.
