- whispersnow 4y agoThen what's the difference between a "serverless" vs VMs like docker?
- yshrestha 4y agoVMs and Docker are just convenient ways to capture the "execution environment" as I referenced in my previous comment.
- billpg 4y ago"Serverless" comes packaged and optimized for this mode of operation. Everyone expects the VMs to be short-lived. I'm sure it's all a remarkably boring VM service underneath.
