I was under the impression that "serverless" was marketing speak for "it has servers, but it's more opaque, and we will charge you a lot more".
It's more like "it has servers, but you don't have to manage them, or hire someone to manage them, and we will charge you a lot more, but maybe you'll save money because you don't have to hire someone".
It may also be cheaper because they only run (and acal) when needed, instead of having a few extra servers running "just in case".
Until you get a random ddoss attack or bug and get a 1000 times higher bill.
Correct
