I truly hope that people stop misleading the mass with buzz words. We already have too many of them being used for clickbait. I don't get why a simple client-server architecture would not suffice the "serverless". Software engineering and architecture design used to be cool in the past with useful design patterns. Now it's full of tricks/buzz words that promise the users of silver bullets that help them to manage code and servers. In reality, no such silver bullet exist and such tricks/architecture fail every day. I've noticed that martinfowler.com is one such place that seems to provide such empty promise of a silver bullet!



I am reading about this trying to think what it could be useful for. (I am sure there are some, I don't see any use for it with my work).

"Serverless" seems to be the pricing model. It still runs on a server.
