This is what happens when a technical field gets infiltrated by business bros. Remember how openai was talking about AGI helping humanity or smth? Their definition of AGI was leaked recently, its “making $100 billion profit”.
That’s it, thats what will help humanity achieve its true potential, by openai making $100b in profits.
Not really. Serverless is “you don’t need to manage the servers”. For some businesses, even managing a VPS is too technical a task. So, you could either go out and hire someone who can do that, or you can go serverless and pay a bit more for that, but save by not needing additional expertise.
We all are disagreeing on the naming not the functionality. It used to be the case that names in tech were descriptive, just by reading it out loud you can understand the tech (e,g. SQL, OOP etc.).
“Serverless” is a marketing term. A better name would be “server agnostic deployment” or many many other ways to describe it.
The fact is, this name was created by the people selling it not the people using it. And i am sure the idea is not new, but the serverless name tries to make it seem like a comparatively recent thing so people would buy it more.
