It really is such a cool concept. The autism in me hates the name though because there’s always a server. I wish it were called a “container-based service” or even just “containers” instead of serverless to be more direct. Perhaps even “web functions.”

There’s so much big talk about scale but really, scaling is not that important to 99% of businesses I’ve worked at. You’re not a startup. Your typical server has a huge amount of resources if managed appropriately. I guarantee and would bet money that you’ll never have a million users let alone a billion using your medical coding web app. Like, sit down!

Who knew that removing functionality and limiting access to your product was the path to social media success.

He isn’t just gaining. He’s closing the gap faster and faster.
